Patent number: 11557153Abstract: The technology described in this document can be embodied in a method for preventing access to a secure system based on determining a captured image to be of an alternative representation of a live person. The method includes capturing an image of a subject illuminated by an infrared (IR) illumination source, and extracting, from the image, a portion representative of an iris of the subject. The method also includes determining that an amount of high-frequency features in the portion of the image satisfies a threshold condition indicative of the image being of an alternative representation of a live person, and in response, identifying the subject in the image to be an alternative representation of a live person. Responsive to identifying the subject in the image to be an alternative representation of a live person, the method further includes preventing access to the secure system.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2021Date of Patent: January 17, 2023Assignee: Jumio CorporationInventors: Yash Joshi, Srikanth Parupati

Patent number: 11170209Abstract: An underwater camera system for monitoring fish in a fish pen is described. A stereoscopic camera may be used to determine dimensions of fish, and the underwater camera system may use the fish dimensions to estimate a biomass value of fish within the fish pen. The biomass value and rates of change of the biomass value may be used to adjust feeding of the fish in the fish pen. Images captured by the stereoscopic camera may be used to focus a variable focal lens camera on a fish to obtain high-resolution images that can be used for diagnosing fish conditions. Images captured by the stereoscopic camera may be used to predict motion of the fish, and the predicted motion may be used to generate various fish monitoring analytic values. The fish monitoring analytic values may be used to automatically control operation of the fish pen.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 2020Date of Patent: November 9, 2021Assignee: Innovasea Systems, Inc.Inventors: Chen Ma, Srikanth Parupati, Raghunandan Pasula
