Abstract
The subject disclosure relates to ways to authenticate a rider/user of an autonomous vehicle (AV) using biometric data, such as facial recognition. A process of the disclosed technology can facilitate the automatic unlocking of an AV by performing steps that include: receiving a dispatch request associated with a user identifier (ID), receiving a recognition model that corresponds with the user ID, and receiving an image stream including images of pedestrian faces. In some aspects, the process can further include steps for: providing the images to the recognition model, and determining if a user represented in the images corresponds with the user ID. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.
