IMAGE ACQUISITION APPARATUS, IMAGE ACQUISITION METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18229472 titled 'IMAGE ACQUISITION APPARATUS, IMAGE ACQUISITION METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an image acquisition apparatus that includes an output control unit and an image acquisition unit. The output control unit causes an output unit to display content, while the image acquisition unit captures an image of a person for authentication purposes.

  • The output control unit triggers the output unit to display content.
  • The image acquisition unit captures an image of a person for authentication.
  • The image capture unit is positioned to capture the person's face when facing the output unit.
  • The output control unit continues displaying content until a condition for successful authentication is met.

Original Abstract Submitted

An image acquisition apparatus includes an output control unit and an image acquisition unit. The output control unit causes an output unit to output a content. The image acquisition unit acquires an image generated by an image capture unit, the image includes a person and is an image for authentication. The image capture unit is located in a position where a face of the person can be captured when the person faces to the output unit. Further, the output control unit continues to cause the output unit to output the content until a first condition being set in order to make the authentication succeed is satisfied.
