An electronic face-identification device, which performs face scanning with ultrasonic waves, includes a housing and an ultrasound device disposed within the housing. The ultrasound device may be configured to transmit ultrasonic waves through air to a face and scan the face with the ultrasonic waves, to receive reflected waves through the air corresponding to reflections of the ultrasonic waves from the face, and to perform a recognition process for the face based on reflections of the ultrasonic waves from the face. The ultrasound device may include a plurality of ultrasound transducers, and electronic circuitry configured to transmit signals to the ultrasound transducers and receive signals from the ultrasound transducers. The face-identification device may be incorporated into various electronic equipment, such as hand-held equipment in the form of smartphones and tablet computers, as well as in larger scale installations at airports, workplace entryways, and the like.

An imaging system is provided with: a first imaging apparatus (2) that captures an image of an imaging target (T, TP) that is located at a first point (P1); a second imaging apparatus (3) a focus position of which is set at a second point (P2) that is located at a forward side along a moving direction of the imaging target than the first point; and a control apparatus (6) that controls the second imaging apparatus to capture an image of the imaging target that is located at the second point on the basis of the image (200) captured by the first imaging apparatus.

An information processing apparatus includes: a memory configured to store one or more instructions; and a processor configured to execute the one or more instructions to: obtain a first image including a first representation of an iris region of a first eye; obtain a second image including a second representation of an iris region of a second eye; receive an input to rotate at least one of the first image or the second image; and control a display to display the at least one of the first image or the second image in a rotated state based on the input.

A breath analyzer, a system, and a computer program for administering a breath analysis to a donor and recording a breath analysis result. Embodiments of the invention authenticate that the breath analysis was performed correctly, preserves the breath analysis results by communicating with other devices, and presents the breath analysis results by superimposing them on recorded video data. The breath analyzer includes a breath receptor for receiving a breath sample from the donor, an analyzing element for determining a breath analysis result, a communications element for sending information indicative of the breath analysis result to a recording device manager, and a housing for securing the components in a handheld device. The system comprises the breath analyzer, a recording device manager for synchronizing the recordings, and at least one ancillary camera for recording the breath analysis.

Provided are a medical diagnosis apparatus and a medical diagnosis method using the same. According to an embodiment, the medical diagnosis apparatus may include: a main body; a chair unit movably supported by the main body and on which an object is positioned; a diagnosis part that is movably connected to the main body and is spaced apart from the chair unit by a preset first distance in one plane; a controller configured to generate a control signal for moving the diagnosis part according to preset information; and a first driving device configured to generate a driving force for moving the diagnosis part according to the control signal.

A first registration unit stores payment information and master face information in a first storage unit in association with each other. The payment information is information necessary for electronically making payment. An acquisition unit acquires, from a checkout apparatus, face information of a customer. An authentication unit reads, when master face information in which a score for the face information is equal to or more than a reference value is present, payment information relevant to the master face information from the first storage unit, and causes the checkout apparatus to execute checkout processing using the payment information. A second registration unit stores, in the first storage unit in association with payment information of a customer, as master biometric information, biometric information including iris information and/or vein information of the customer, under a necessary condition in that the checkout apparatus executes the checkout processing using the payment information.

Among other things, techniques are described for screening and monitoring the health of a vehicle user including receiving sensor data produced by a sensor at the vehicle, processing the sensor data to determine at least one health condition of the user of the vehicle, and in response to determining the at least one health condition, executing a vehicle function selected from a plurality of vehicle functions based on the at least one health condition.

The present disclosure provides methods of improving structure of a face in a patient, more particularly by classifying the facial shape in order to allow the design of a specific treatment plan directed to each type of face shape.

To participate in a health incentive program, a customer of a health-related business such as a health insurance company or medical group entity may use a physiological measurement device to report health-related activity to the business. However, a customer may report fraudulent activity to the business by allowing another party to use the physiological measurement device. In embodiments, an electronic device, a collection and validation server, and a physiological measurement device may execute methods to ensure that the user of the physiological measurement device has identified themselves properly to the business. In embodiments, the electronic device and the physiological measurement device may produce sets of physiological measurement data that are compared to determine that a user of the electronic device is the same as the user of the physiological measurement device. The electronic device may produce a set of physiological measurement data using video and image processing techniques.

A method for generating an acoustic stimulus for use in an ear biometric process on a user, the method comprising: receiving an indication of stimulation frequencies for use in the ear biometric process; grouping the stimulation frequencies into bands of a psychoacoustic scale; generating the acoustic stimulus, the acoustic stimulus comprising a masked bandpass component within each band of the psychoacoustic scale that comprises one or more of the stimulation frequencies.
