Abstract: A liveness detection system comprises a controller, a video input, a feature recognition module, and a liveness detection module. The controller is configured to control an output device to provide randomized outputs to an entity over an interval of time. The video input is configured to receive a moving image of the entity captured by a camera over the interval of time. The feature recognition module is configured to process the moving image to detect at least one human feature of the entity. The liveness detection module is configured to compare with the randomized outputs a behaviour exhibited by the detected human feature over the interval of time to determine whether the behaviour is an expected reaction to the randomized outputs, thereby determining whether the entity is a living being.
