LIVENESS TEST METHOD AND APPARATUS AND BIOMETRIC AUTHENTICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18515798 titled 'LIVENESS TEST METHOD AND APPARATUS AND BIOMETRIC AUTHENTICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for determining whether an object is genuine based on preprocessed infrared and depth images.

• The method involves generating a preprocessed infrared image by performing preprocessing on an infrared image containing the object.
• A preprocessed depth image is generated by performing preprocessing on a depth image containing the object.
• The genuineness of the object is determined based on the preprocessed infrared and depth images.

Potential Applications

• Security systems
• Object recognition technology
• Authentication systems

Problems Solved

• Identifying genuine objects
• Enhancing security measures
• Improving object recognition accuracy

Benefits

• Increased accuracy in determining object genuineness
• Enhanced security measures
• Improved authentication processes

Original Abstract Submitted

A processor-implemented method includes generating a preprocessed infrared (IR) image by performing first preprocessing based on an IR image including an object; generating a preprocessed depth image by performing second preprocessing based on a depth image including the object; and determining whether the object is a genuine object based on the preprocessed IR image and the preprocessed depth image
