Abstract
An identification and verification system which includes a card, or the like, having stored thereon human facial image projection characters, means for retrieving the human facial image projection characters and manipulating the same to produce an output signal indicative of a human facial feature for use in identification and verification. The retrieving means includes universal face space (UFS) memory indicative of facial features for a non-homogeneous population wherein the output signal is generated by projecting the projection characters into the UFS memory.
Claims14
A non-invasive human user identification and verification system, comprising:
- user means for presenting and storing a human facial image projection character;
- and
- means for retrieving said human facial image projection character from said user means and capable of manipulating said projection character to produce an output signal indicative of a human facial feature for use in verification of the user, said retrieving means includes universal face space memory indicative of facial features for a non-homogeneous population and wherein said output signal is generated by projecting said human facial image projection character into said universal face space memory.
A document cashing system comprising:
- user means for storing a human facial image projection character;
- a machine for performing financial transactions including the dispensing of cash;
- said machine comprising:
- means for retrieving said human facial image projection character and capable of manipulating said projection character to produce an output signal indicative of a human facial feature for use in verification of the user, which includes universal face space memory indicative of facial features for a non-homogeneous population and wherein said output signal is generated by projecting said human facial image projection character into said universal face space memory;
- means for receiving and displaying said output signal of said human facial feature;
- and
- means for manually entering data to perform said financial transactions.

A document cashing system comprising:
- user means for storing a human facial image projection character;
- a machine for performing financial transactions including the dispensing of cash;
- said machine comprising:
- means for retrieving said human facial image projection character and capable of manipulating said projection character to produce an output signal indicative of a human facial feature for use in verification of the user, which includes universal face space memory indicative of facial features for non-homogeneous population and wherein said output signal is generated by projecting said universal face space memory;
- mean for receiving and displaying said output signal of said human facial feature;
- video camera means for gathering a human facial image;
- and
- means for digitizing said human facial image and for producing a digitized output signal, wherein said retrieving and manipulating means is further capable of receiving said digitized output to produce another human facial image projection character, and further includes means for comparing said human facial image projection character and said another human facial image projection character and providing an output signal indicative of a positive or negative identification;
- and
- means for manually entering data to perform said financial transactions.

A secure area access system comprising:
- user means for storing a human facial image projection character;
- a machine for controlling personel access to a secure area, said machine comprising:
- means for retrieving said human facial image projection character and capable of manipulating said projection character to produce an output signal indicative of a human facial feature for use in verification of the user, which includes universal face space memory indicative of facial features for a non-homogeneous population and wherein said output signal is generated by projecting said human facial image projection character into said universal face space memory;
- means for receiving and displaying said output signal of said human facial feature;
- video camera means for gathering a human facial image;
- means for digitizing said human facial image and for producing a digitized output signal, wherein said retrieving and manipulating means is further capable of receiving said digitized output signal to produce another human facial image projection character, and further includes means for comparing said human facial image projection character and said another human facial image projection character and providing an output signal indicative of a positive or negative identification;
- and
- means for operating said automated locking mechanisms upon proper identification of said personel.
