Abstract: Face management server includes user manager that manages a face image for registration for each user acquired by registration device registering the face image of the user and specific information other than the face image in association with each other, the specific information being used for specifying each user; device manager that manages information on a face authentication machine acquiring the face image for authentication of the user; and screen generator that generates a management screen for confirming or changing an information management status by user manager and device manager.

Abstract: A face authentication system includes a registration device that acquires a face image for registration of a user in a facility and specific information used for specifying the user, one or more face authentication machines that acquire a face image for authentication of the user captured when the event is generated, a face management server that is connected to the registration device via a network, and accumulates the face image for registration and the specific information in association with each other, and a face collation server that generates face feature data from the face image for registration and the face image for authentication, and performs collation processing between pieces of the face feature data.

Abstract: A face authentication registration device includes one or more personal information acquirers (face capturing camera and information acquisition camera) that acquire a plurality of pieces of personal information including information on a face image; a display unit (display) that displays a registration procedure of the personal information acquired by the personal information acquirer to the user; and a processor (controller) that controls the personal information acquirer and the display unit. The processor causes the display unit to display a first screen for guiding an operation of registration of the personal information to the user and a second screen for notifying the user of a completion of registration of the personal information, as the registration procedure.
