This study introduces a novel 3D face recognition system using structured-light and laser scanning. The system effectively overcomes pose variation challenges, achieving promising face recognition rates.

Area of Science:

  • Computer Science
  • Biometrics
  • Image Processing

Background:

  • Two-dimensional (2D) face recognition struggles with pose variations.
  • Three-dimensional (3D) sensing offers a potential solution to these limitations.
  • Existing 3D face recognition methods may have limitations in data acquisition or processing.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a novel 3D face recognition system.
  • To address the challenge of pose variation in face recognition.
  • To compare data acquired from structured-light and laser scanning systems.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized two distinct 3D sensors: a structured-light system for input data and a 3D laser scanner for reference data.
  • Generated range images from both sensor types to handle structural differences.
