Abstract

Access control has much attracted research interest recently. In this paper, we propose a method using human face and height as human trait to recognize a person. We observe that eye location extracted from a human face is sta-ble to be used to compute his/her height to the ground. Using it together with face recognition can increase the ac-curacy of the access control. We have implemented the method on a PC installed with a stereo camera. The design criteria, techniques, implementation details, and performance testing are presented. Keywords: 3D reconstruction, gradient descent method, biometric fusion, application.
