Patent number: 11475702Abstract: The invention relates to a papillary print sensor comprising an acquisition surface (14) extending over a length L, a light source (11) configured to emit a light pulse, a sheet (12) adapted to propagate light rays by reflection on the first face (12a) and the second face (12b), which defines a critical angle (?c), and an imager (13), wherein the thickness (e) of the sheet is less than a thickness emax=L/2×tan(?c), such that a first part of the light rays (20b, 20c) is propagated without reflection on the acquisition surface (14) while a second part of the light rays (20a, 20d) is reflected towards said acquisition surface (14) after reflection on the second face (12), and the imager (13) is configured to acquire a first image during the reception of the first part of the light rays and a second image during the reception of the second part of the light rays.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2020Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: IDEMIA IDENTITY & SECURITY FRANCEInventor: Laurent Trouboul

Patent number: 11263451Abstract: A device for recognition from biometric characteristics extracted from at least one image of at least one iris of a candidate for recognition, the device having an image sensor with a field covering a capture zone in which at least one of the eyes of the candidate for recognition is intended to be located, and an illumination source of the capture zone, the illumination source emitting incident radiation in a wavelength range adapted to excite iris fluorescence and the sensor being arranged to be sensitive to iris fluorescence. Recognition method using such a device.Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 2019Date of Patent: March 1, 2022Assignee: IDEMIA IDENTITY & SECURITY FRANCEInventors: Laurent Trouboul, Jean-François Siwek, Jean-Rémi Sandraz

Patent number: 11163142Abstract: A one-piece optical element (1) consisting of a material transparent to light, comprising a diaphragm (5) formed in the mass of said transparent material, the diaphragm (5) comprising an orifice consisting of said transparent material, suitable for the passage of light through said orifice, and a screen consisting of said transparent material surrounding said orifice (6), said screen opposing the passage of light therethrough and being formed by a succession of modified layers formed of the transparent material, separated from each other, and having a modified refractive index different from the refractive index of the transparent material in the rest of the optical element.Type: GrantFiled: February 5, 2019Date of Patent: November 2, 2021Assignee: IDEMIA IDENTITY & SECURITY FRANCEInventor: Laurent Trouboul

Patent number: 10460145Abstract: A device for capturing imprints of a body part on-the-fly, including a stand which includes a region of free space through which a user may pass a body part. When in this zone, the body part is simultaneously illuminated by a light source that produces a uniform illumination of the body part and a sight-projecting module that projects a sight onto the body part, and an image of the body part thus illuminated is acquired by the image-acquiring module. The capturing device is able to model the variations in light intensity of the projection of the sight on the body part by determining parameters of a preset parametric mathematical model, and generate a synthetic image of said projection on the basis of said model and using parameters determined beforehand. The synthetic image is then subtracted from the acquired image in order to obtain a sight-free image of the body part.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 2018Date of Patent: October 29, 2019Assignee: IDEMIA IDENTITY & SECURITY FRANCEInventor: Laurent Trouboul
