摘要

A suite of mobile face and iris recognition software for biometric security and authentication has been introduced by FotoNation (San Jose, CA, USA;). FotoNation based the solutions on its deep learning neural network and MIRLIN Iris recognition technologies, to deliver authentication in outdoor conditions. The company's Facial Recognition product combines a smartphone's front-facing camera and pairs that with deep learning and computer vision algorithms to identify subjects in various light conditions and poses at a false acceptance rate (FAR) of 1 in 10,000, according to the company.
