  • Patent number: 11960586
    Abstract: A face recognition system including: a reading unit that reads identification information from a medium carried by an authentication subject; an image capturing unit that acquires an image; a face detection unit that detects, as a detected face image, a face image from the image acquired; a face matching unit that, when a registered face image associated with the identification information read by the reading unit is present, matches the detected face image against the registered face image and matches, against the registered face image, the detected face image captured before the reading unit reads the identification information; and a registration unit that, when the registered face image associated with the identification information read is not present, registers, as the registered face image, the detected face image before the reading unit reads the identification information.

  • Publication number: 20220405368
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus in the present invention includes: a matching unit that matches biometric information acquired from a user requesting use of a management target with registered biometric information of each of a plurality of registrants; a determination unit that determines whether or not a registrant with which a matching result is that the matching is successful out of the plurality of registrants has usage authority for the management target; and an output unit that, when the matching result from the matching unit is that the matching failed, outputs first error information, and when it is determined in the determination unit that the registrant with which the matching result is that the matching is successful does not have the usage authority, outputs second error information different from the first error information.

  • Patent number: 8644483
    Abstract: A telephone relay apparatus stores peripheral telephone numbers of a plurality of peripheral telephone terminals scheduled to be located at the periphery of each specific terminal user. When a line connecting request from an outgoing telephone terminal of an arbitrary telephone outgoing user to a specific telephone terminal is received, connection of a telephone call execution line from the outgoing telephone terminal to the specific telephone terminal is tried. Therefore, when the connection is connected, a telephone call between the telephone outgoing user and the specific terminal user can be immediately made. However, when the telephone call execution line to the specific telephone terminal is not connected, the peripheral telephone terminal is selected in a transfer trying order, and connection of the telephone call execution line is tried with the peripheral telephone numbers in the transfer trying order.
