  • Publication number: 20240155239
    Abstract: An information processing system (10) comprises: a rotation control unit (110) that makes a first camera (18) and a second camera (19) having a same rotation axis rotate on the rotation axis depending on a position of a target to be imaged; an acquisition unit (120) that acquires a first living body information from an image taken by the first camera and acquires a second living body information from an image taken by the second camera; an authentication unit (130) that executes authentication processing using the first living body information and the second living body information; and an execution unit (140) that executes, in a case that the authentication processing is successful, predetermined processing in a facility that the target uses. By such an information processing system, it is possible to execute authentication processing on the target with high accuracy and appropriately execute the predetermined processing.
