Abstract
A user terminal apparatus and an iris recognition method thereof are provided. The user terminal apparatus includes an imaging unit configured to generate an image of a user, a display configured to display the generated image, and a controller configured to detect a user eye from the generated image, control the display to display a guide image in a position of the generated image in which the detected user eye is located, and perform iris recognition in response to a difference between a size of an iris included in the detected user eye and a size of the guide image being within a preset range.
Claims25
A user terminal apparatus comprising:
- an imaging unit configured to generate an image of a user;
- a display configured to display the generated image;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- detect a user eye from the generated image,
- control the display to display a guide image in a position of the generated image in which the detected user eye is located, and
- perform iris recognition in response to a difference between a size of an iris included in the detected user eye and a size of the guide image being within a preset range.
A method of a user terminal apparatus recognizing an iris of a user, the method comprising:
- generating an image of the user;
- displaying the generated image;
- detecting a user eye from the generated image;
- displaying a guide image in a position of the generated image in which the detected user eye is located;
- and
- performing iris recognition in response to a difference between a size of an iris included in the detected user eye and a size of the guide image being within a preset range.
A user terminal apparatus comprising:
- a storage unit configured to store a plurality of reference images acquired according to different imaging conditions;
- an imaging unit configured to generate an image of a user;
- a display configured to display the generated image;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- detect a user eye from the generated image, and
- perform iris recognition by comparing a reference image having an imaging condition corresponding to the detected user eye from among the plurality of reference images with the detected user eye.
