Patent attributes
Embodiments of the present invention relate to systems, methods, and computer storage media for identifying, authenticating, and authorizing a user to a device. A dynamic image, such as a video captured by a depth camera, is received. The dynamic image provides data from which geometric information of a portion of a user may be identified as well as motion information of a portion of the user may be identified. Consequently, a geometric attribute is identified from the geometric information. A motion attribute may also be identified from the motion information. The geometric attribute is compared to one or more geometric attributes associated with authorized users. Additionally, the motion attribute may be compared to one or more motion attributes associated with the authorized users. A determination may be made that the user is an authorized user. As such the user is authorized to utilize functions of the device.
