Patent attributes
Facial biometric systems and methods employ digital fingerprints that represent facial characteristics. These systems and methods may perform various digital fingerprint related processes including induction (acquiring of the facial data, generation of a digital fingerprint and storing in a database) and authentication (a process of using the digital fingerprint of the face to perform biometrics). The facial biometric system and method combines these processes with a particular set of hardware to perform the facial biometrics process that is novel and provides benefits and capabilities not achievable by other biometric systems and methods.
