Face recognition is becoming popular with companies suffering from loss of information and decrease in productivity due to inappropriate security measures. At the same time, big organizations, airports and other high-alert areas are also developing fondness towards the technology. for more Details go our website: http://www.timelabs.in/Face-Readers-Devices-details
2. • Are you one of those who hate
punching passwords and wish there
was something better to acknowledge
your identity? How often have you lost
your password count? As
organizations strive to bring more
security into their mode of operations,
the employees continue to complain of
the incessant alerts and warnings on
the password changes and the number
of characters you can have. Well,
wouldn’t it be smart if the
management just switched to a
biometric face recognition system. No
hassles with the password and Pins.
Just screen your face and your identity
is established in 5 seconds flat!
3. Why biometrics?
Passwords are not a great tool for clumsy
and fidgety individuals. Memory
challenges often hamper the retention of
the passwords especially when used to
secure sensitive documents and assets. A
combination containing the numbers,
alpha-numeric characters, special
characters and the length of the
passwords are hard to remember and
manage. As biometric authentication
requires no such ‘intervention’ with the
keyboard or number pads, the chances of
ID thefts is reduced to zero.
4. Behavioral and Physical Attributes included in Biometrics
Whether you are wearing a make-up or sporting a beard, the biometric face recognition
system is smart enough to catch the true identity in the same time as your normal
appearance. It also measures the degree of deviation of your captured image with the
original stored template. It is capable of comparing the different behavioral traits with
the biological traits as well.
Common behavioral traits captured in the biometric face recognition system are:
o Twitching of facial features
o Poking of nose
o Rate of blinking of eyes
o Rate of flaring of nose
5. • The biological traits detected by the biometrics sensors include:
o Distance between the lips
o Eyebrow density
o Hairline marker
o Size of the ears
o Unique marks like moles, cuts or scratches on the face
o Chin line
o Dental structure
o Stubble density
High-end features included in the biometrics sensors
In recent times, popular biometric systems have begun to use sophisticated
technologies that can measure tiniest of details or changes made to the face. Some
of them are:
6. - Surgical or cosmetic changed made to the face
- Density of sweat pores
- Change in eye color or hair color
- Detection of face from under the veil using templates
- Detection of face covered with cap
-Recreating the face even if the image is captured at an angle or from the back using 3-D Imaging
techniques
Challenges with using Biometrics
Like all technologies, the biometrics face recognition system has certain
challenges that are being placed under corrective incubators for further
assessment. Major limitations are:
- All captured images are compared with the available template. If the template
is corrupt or is lost due to ID Theft, the biometric face recognition system is
rendered useless till new templates are made available.
- It requires an elaborate IT management and additional budget for installation,
operation and expansion process.
- Logistics is limited and can be used at specific locations only.
