Abstract
In an image processing system a processor is configured to perform an image processing method. The method performs receiving a spectral image of a person's skin and identifying the person based on the received spectral image of the person's skin and skin reflectance information.
Claims17
Image processing system, comprising:
- a processor configured to
- receive a spectral image of a person's skin,
- generate a first skin map based on the spectral image, the first skin map identifying for each preset area of the spectral image split into preset areas whether the preset area is related to skin or not,
- receive an RGB image,
- generate a second skin map based on the RGB image, the second skin map identifying for each preset area of the RGB image split into preset areas whether the preset area is related to skin or not,
- generate a real skin map by combining the first skin map and the second skin map, and
- identify the person based on the first skin map, skin reflectance information, and the real skin map.
