Abstract
A user recognition and confirmation device includes an image sensing unit, a face recognition unit, a display unit and an expression recognition unit. The image sensing unit captures a first image frame and a second image frame. The face recognition unit is configured to recognize a user ID according to the first image frame. The display unit is configured to show ID information of the user ID. The expression recognition unit is configured to confirm a user expression according to the second image frame and output a confirm signal. There is further provided a user recognition and confirmation method and a central control system for vehicles.
