Abstract
An iris or other object detection method and apparatus are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises sending image data to a display of a device that is captured with a first camera of the device with an indication to guide a user to position a body part of the user with respect to the display while the image data is being sent to the display, providing feedback to the user to indicate to the user that the body part is in position so that an image of the body part can be captured by a second camera of the device, capturing an image of the body part with the second camera, and performing recognition on the body part using the image.
Claims24
A method comprising:
- causing, by executing instructions with at least one processor, image data and a first indication to be displayed via a display of a device, the image data associated with a first camera of the device, the first indication to guide a user to position a body part of the user with respect to the display, the first indication indicative of a field of view of a second camera of the device;
- detecting that the body part is within the field of view of the second camera, the field of view of the second camera narrower than a field of view of the first camera;
- in response to detecting that the body part is within the field of view of the second camera:
- causing, by executing instructions with the at least one processor, the display of the first indication to be terminated;
- and
- causing, by executing instructions with the at least one processor, a second indication to be displayed on the display, the second indication indicative of a position of the body part within the field of view of the second camera;
- causing, by executing the instructions with the at least one processor, the second camera to capture an image of the body part;
- and
- performing, by executing the instructions with the at least one processor, recognition of the body part using the image.
A device comprising:
- a display;
- a first camera to output first image data;
- a second camera to output second image data, the second image data including an image of a body part of a user;
- and
- processor circuitry to:
- cause the first image data and a first indication to be displayed via the display, the first indication to guide the user to position the body part of the user with respect to the second camera, the first indication indicative of a field of view of the second camera;
- detect that the body part is within the field of view of the second camera, the field of view of the second camera narrower than a field of view of the first camera;
- in response to the detection that the body part is within the field of view of the second camera, cause a second indication to be displayed via the display, the second indication indicative of a position of the body part within the field of view of the second camera, the second indication to be displayed after the first indication;
- and
- perform recognition of the body part using the second image data.
An article of manufacture having one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a device, cause the one or more processors to at least:
- cause image data and a first indication to be displayed on a display of the device, the image data associated with a first camera of the device, the first indication to guide a user to position a body part of the user, the first indication representing a field of view of a second camera of the device;
- detect that the body part is within the field of view of the second camera, the field of view of the second camera narrower than a field of view of the first camera;
- in response to the detection that the body part is within the field of view of the second camera, cause a second indication to be displayed on the display, the second indication associated with a position of the body part within the field of view of the second camera;
- cause the second camera to capture an image of the body part;
- and
- perform recognition of the body part using the image.
