  • Patent number: 10479370
    Abstract: A system for authorizing a user to operate a vehicle comprises first and second image capturing devices disposed inside and outside the vehicle to capture first and second images of the user, respectively; an identification device to compare the first image with a first stored user image, generate a first output, and upload the first image to the database as a second stored user image if a matching degree of the first image with the first stored user image is greater than a first threshold. The identification device further compares the second image with the second stored user image and generates a second output if a matching degree of the second image and the second stored user image is larger than a second threshold. The system further comprises first and second operation execution devices to perform first and second vehicle operations upon the first and second outputs, respectively.
