An authentication device includes an image acquisition unit, an identification unit, and an authentication unit. The image acquisition unit acquires an image of an eye of a subject. The identification unit identifies the colored pattern of a colored contact lens worn by the subject by comparing a reference image with the image of the eye. The authentication unit identifies the subject, using a feature in a region other than a colored region of the colored pattern in the iris region of the eye.

Authentication device, authentication method, and recording medium

A control device according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes: at least one memory configured to store instructions; and at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to: acquire an input image including an eye region that is a region of an eye part; estimate illuminance of the eye part from the acquired input image; and determine a light amount of illumination of visible light with which the eye part is irradiated in such a way that a pupil size of the eye part satisfies a size condition based on an illuminance size relationship that is a relationship between the illuminance and the pupil size.

Determination of light amount of illumination of visible light with which the eye part is irradiated such that pupil size satisfies a size condition

The disclosure is detecting an authentication target who is moving in a predetermined direction in a video; inputting a first image in which an entire body of the target; calculating characteristic information from an image of the entire body in the first image, comparing the calculated characteristic information with characteristic information of the entire body stored in first memory that stores characteristic information of entire bodies of targets, and extracting candidate information of the targets from the first memory based on a first authentication result; inputting a second image in which an iris of the target; and comparing characteristic information of irises stored in second memory that stores the characteristic information of the irises of targets with characteristic information of an iris from the second image, calculating a verification score, executing second authentication on the target in the second image based on the verification score, and outputting an authentication result.

A change detection meansdetects an area of change in a product shelf on which a product has been arranged, on the basis of a captured image of the product. A classification meansclassifies the change in the product shelf in the detected area of change. A shopping list generation meansgenerates a shopping list for a customer on the basis of the classification of the change in the product shelf and of shelving information on the product shelf.

Self-checkout system, purchased product management method, and purchased product management program

An information providing device according to one aspect of the present disclosure includes: at least one memory storing a set of instructions; and at least one processor configured to execute the set of instructions to: receive a face image; determine whether a person in the face image is unsuitable for iris data acquisition based on the face image; and output information based on determining that the person is unsuitable for the iris data acquisition when the person is determined to be unsuitable for the iris data acquisition.

Information providing device, information providing method, and storage medium

The invention provides a registration apparatus () including: an image acquisition unit () that acquires an image obtained by imaging a placement surface of a table, on which a product is placed; an analysis unit () that recognizes the product included in the image; a registration unit () that registers the recognized product as a checkout target; and an output unit () that outputs sound corresponding to a progress of analysis of the image in the analysis unit ().

Registration apparatus, registration method, and non-transitory storage medium

To provide a system, a method and the like for acquiring more images or more quickly focused images. A control device acquires information regarding a situation of a range captured by an imaging device, determines a mode according to an assumed situation of the range captured by the imaging device among a plurality of focusing modes, and transmits designation information specifying the determined mode to the imaging device. The imaging device receives the designation information from the control device, and captures an image using the mode specified by the received designation information.

Imaging control system, imaging control method, control device, control method, and storage medium

The invention addresses the problem of improving labor of a registration operation of a product and enabling a checkout operator to recognize a recognition result. In order to solve the problem, the invention provides a registration apparatus () including: an image acquisition unit () that acquires an image obtained by imaging a placement surface of a table, on which a product is placed; an analysis unit () that recognizes the product included in the image, a registration unit () that registers the recognized product as a checkout target, and an output unit () that outputs a name of the recognized product by voice.

A manufacturing management deviceincludes an acquisition unitthat acquires unique information of a product from a captured image of the product captured in a manufacturing step included in a manufacturing process of the product, and acquires operation information representing an operation of a person who performs a manufacturing work on the product in the manufacturing step, and an association unitthat sores the acquired unique information of the product and the acquired operation information in association with each other.
