  • Publication number: 20250238491
    Abstract: Provided is an information processing apparatus capable of reducing the possibility of contact between a user and a member in authentication of the user. An information processing apparatus (100) includes a detection unit (101) that detects a hand presenting a reading target object including identification information of a user, and a reading unit (102) that reads biometric information from an image obtained by imaging the detected hand and reads identification information from the reading target object presented by the hand.

  • Publication number: 20250209856
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a projection image acquisition unit, a determination unit, and a control signal output unit. The projection image acquisition unit acquires a projection image obtained by projecting a predetermined guidance image onto a hand of a user presented on a biometric information reading apparatus that reads predetermined biometric information from the user's hand. The determination unit determines whether the guidance image and the image of the hand included in the projection image correspond to a predetermined condition. The control signal output unit outputs a predetermined control signal to the biometric information reading apparatus based on the determination.

  • Publication number: 20250200964
    Abstract: Provided is an information processing apparatus capable of estimating quality of biometric information according to a posture of a user. An information processing apparatus (100) according to the disclosure includes: a posture information acquisition unit (101) that acquires posture information indicating a posture of a user who performs biometric authentication; a learned model (102) learned to estimate quality information from input posture information and output estimated quality information by performing machine learning using the posture information and quality information indicating quality of biometric information corresponding to the posture information as teacher data; and an output unit (103) that outputs the estimated quality information from the acquired posture information using the learned model (102).

  • Publication number: 20230306783
    Abstract: In an information processing device, a fingerprint acquisition means acquires fingerprints of a subject by using a fingerprint scanning device. An image acquisition means acquires hand images of the subject. A finger determination means determines based on the hand images whether or not the subject is placing index fingers on the fingerprint scanning device. An alert means outputs an alert in a case where the subject does not place the index fingers on the fingerprint scanning device.
