INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18239553 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The present invention is an information processing apparatus that can match biometrics information of a person detected from an image against a registered biometrics information group.

  • The apparatus acquires a first biometrics information group, which includes biometrics information on a first person detected from a first image captured in a specific area, from a registered biometrics information group that contains information on multiple individuals.
  • The apparatus includes a matching unit that compares the biometrics information of a second person detected from a second image captured in a different area against the biometrics information included in the first biometrics information group.

Potential Applications

  • Security systems: The apparatus can be used in security systems to identify individuals by matching their biometrics information against a registered database.
  • Access control: It can be employed in access control systems to grant or deny access based on the matching of biometrics information.
  • Law enforcement: The apparatus can assist law enforcement agencies in identifying suspects by comparing their biometrics information against a database of registered individuals.

Problems Solved

  • Identification accuracy: The apparatus improves the accuracy of identifying individuals by matching their biometrics information against a registered database.
  • Efficiency: It streamlines the process of matching biometrics information, reducing the time and effort required for identification.
  • Scalability: The apparatus can handle a large number of registrants, making it suitable for applications with a large user base.

Benefits

  • Enhanced security: By accurately matching biometrics information, the apparatus provides a reliable method for verifying the identity of individuals.
  • Convenience: The apparatus eliminates the need for manual identification processes, making it more convenient for users.
  • Time-saving: The automated matching process saves time for both the individuals being identified and the operators of the system.


Original Abstract Submitted

An information processing apparatus in the present invention includes: an acquisition unit that acquires a first biometrics information group including biometrics information on a first person detected from a first image captured in a first area from a registered biometrics information group including biometrics information on a plurality of registrants; and a matching unit that matches biometrics information on a second person detected from a second image captured in a second area that is different from the first area against biometrics information included in the first biometrics information group.
