Introduction

George Leifman is a notable inventor based in Haifa, Israel, with a remarkable portfolio of 11 patents. His work primarily focuses on advanced imaging systems and user identification technologies, showcasing his expertise in the field of innovation.

Latest Patents

Among his latest patents is the "Agent re-verification and resolution using imaging." This invention describes a multiple-camera system and process for detecting, tracking, and re-verifying agents within a materials handling facility. In this implementation, a plurality of feature vectors may be generated for an agent and maintained as an agent model representative of the agent. When the object being tracked as the agent is to be re-verified, feature vectors representative of the object are generated and stored as a probe agent model. Feature vectors of the probe agent model are compared with corresponding feature vectors of candidate agent models for agents located in the materials handling facility. Based on the similarity scores, the agent may be re-verified, it may be determined that identifiers used for objects tracked as representative of the agents have been flipped, and/or to determine that tracking of the object representing the agent has been dropped.

Another significant patent is the "User identification system using infrared images of palm characteristics." This identification system includes one or more infrared light sources and a camera that acquires images of a user's palm. At a first time, one or more first images may be acquired by the camera using infrared light with a first polarization that represent external characteristics of the user's palm. At a second time, one or more second images may be acquired using infrared light with a second polarization that represent internal characteristics of the user's palm. These images are processed to determine a first set of feature vectors and a second set of feature vectors. A current signature may be determined using the first set of feature vectors and the second set of feature vectors. In addition, a user may be identified based on a comparison of the current signature and previously stored reference signatures that are associated with candidate user identifiers.
