Publication number: 20250017495Abstract: An authentication device includes an image acquisition unit, an identification unit, and an authentication unit. The image acquisition unit acquires an image of an eye of a subject. The identification unit identifies the colored pattern of a colored contact lens worn by the subject by comparing a reference image with the image of the eye. The authentication unit identifies the subject, using a feature in a region other than a colored region of the colored pattern in the iris region of the eye.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 26, 2024Publication date: January 16, 2025Applicant: NEC CORPORATIONInventors: Takashi SHIBATA, Shoji Yachida, Chisato Funayama, Masato Tsukada, Yuka Ogino, Keiichi Chono, Emi Kitagawa, Yasuhiko Yoshida, Yusuke Mori

Patent number: 9642401Abstract: On the front side of the main part, the first start part separates the main part into a portion covering a knee joint of a wearer and a portion covering at least one of femoral and shin parts of the wearer. On the back side of the main part, the second start part separates the main part into a portion covering the knee joint of the wearer and a portion covering at least one of the femoral and shin parts of the wearer. On an outer side face side of the main part, the third start part at least partly extends under the portion covering the knee joint of the wearer. On an inner side face side of the main part, the fourth start part at least partly extends downward in a part lower than a crotch part of the wearer.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2013Date of Patent: May 9, 2017Assignee: WACOAL CORP.Inventors: Takato Yamada, Yumiko Tanmatsu, Yuka Kitagawa
