Dual camera authentication

A biometric authentication system comprising:

• a first camera configured to capture a first stream of images of an individual and apply gamma correction to images in the first stream of images;
• a second camera configured to capture a second stream of images of the individual without applying gamma correction to images in the second stream of images;
• at least one processor in communication with the first camera and the second camera;
• and
• a data store coupled to the at least one processor having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
• obtaining the first stream of images of the individual from the first camera;
• obtaining the second stream of images of the individual from the second camera simultaneously with the first stream of images;
• verifying an identity of the individual by providing the first stream of images and the second stream of images to a communicatively coupled system for independent automated matching with an authentication image, wherein the authentication image is an image of the individual from a verified source;
• and
• wherein the verifying further comprises determining a best match between the first stream of images and the second stream of images and the authentication image, where the best match is determined according to an amount of common facial characteristics between the verification image and the authentication image.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium coupled to at least one processor and having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processors to perform operations for supporting maintenance procedures in database systems, the operations comprising:

• obtaining, from a first camera, a first stream of images of an individual, wherein gamma correction is applied to images of the first stream of images;
• obtaining, from a second camera, a second stream of images of the individual simultaneously with the first stream of images, wherein gamma correction is not applied to images of the second stream of images;
• verifying an identity of the individual by providing the first stream of images and the second stream of images for independent automated matching to a communicatively coupled system with an authentication image, wherein the authentication image is an image of the individual from a verified source;
• and
• wherein the verifying further comprises determining a best match between the first stream of images and the second stream of images and the authentication image, where the best match is determined according to an amount of common facial characteristics between the verification image and the authentication image.
