Abstract
A wearable article includes: an annular casing that surrounds a space into which a body of a user is to be inserted; a light-emitting element that is provided in the casing, the light-emitting element emitting light towards the space; an imaging element that is provided in the casing, the imaging element capturing and obtaining an image of the space when the light-emitting element emits light; and an authentication circuit that authenticates the user based on a vein pattern obtained in advance and the image.
Claims18
A wearable article comprising:
- an annular casing that surrounds a space into which a body part of a user is to be inserted;
- an imaging element that is provided in the annular casing, the imaging element configured to capture a first image of the space;
- an authentication circuit configured to authenticate the user based on a second image of biometric information previously stored in a storage and the first image of the space, in a case where there is a change from a first state in which the body part is not present in the space to a second state in which the body part is present in the space;
- a proximity sensor that is provided in the annular casing and configured to output a sensor value in accordance with a positional relationship between the annular casing and the body part;
- a wearing determination circuit configured to determine whether the body part is present in the space, based on the sensor value;
- and
- a light source configured to emit light based on an authentication result of the authentication circuit to notify the user of the authentication result.
