Abstract

A method for authenticating a user includes: an application frontend of a face recognition application, upon receipt of a face recognition request from an application backend of the face recognition application, causes a terminal device to activate a camera of the terminal device; the application frontend receives a video stream of a face of the user captured by the camera of the terminal device; the application frontend transmits the received video stream to the application backend; the application backend, upon receipt of the video stream, extracts a face characteristic of the user from the received video stream in real-time; and the application backend compares the extracted face characteristic with a stored reference face characteristic of the user and authenticates the user based on the extracted face characteristic matching the stored reference face characteristic.
