Abstract
The present teaching relates to user authentication. Upon a light sensitive sensor detects a motion, an infrared or near infrared sensor may be activated for capturing an image of a body part of a person appearing nearby. The body part may be positioned in a contactless manner with respect to the infrared or near infrared sensor. The image of the body part may be acquired via the infrared or near infrared sensor. Via processing of the image, it may be determined whether the body part being imaged represents an anticipated body part for authentication. If the body part being imaged is determined to be an anticipated body part for authentication, biometric features of the body part may be extracted from the image. Via the extracted biometric features of the body part, it may be verified whether the person corresponds to one of one or more authorized users previously registered.
