Abstract

The ability to verify automatically and with great accuracy the identity of a person has become crucial in everyday life. Biometrics is an emerging topic in the field of signal processing. Our research on biometrics aims at developing a complete framework useful to control access. This technical demo shows the latest image processing techniques for face detection developed at France Telecom and for face recognition developed at Eurécom. Using only one computer and one standard webcam, our biometric system detects the user face and the recognition algorithm uses this image to enable the access to a resource, a service or a location.
