A system and method for detecting human intruders while rejecting/ignoring an occupant's registered pet. An object detection system is configured to detect an object that is present in a monitored area and generate a signal output relative to the type of object. A signature processor is configured to receive the generated signal output and produce an object signature, and compare a threshold signature to the object signature, wherein the threshold signature is generated using a photograph of a reserved object, and wherein the object detection system rejects the detected object when the object signature is determined to be similar to the threshold signatures.

A wearable article includes: an annular casing that surrounds a space into which a body of a user is to be inserted; a light-emitting element that is provided in the casing, the light-emitting element emitting light towards the space; an imaging element that is provided in the casing, the imaging element capturing and obtaining an image of the space when the light-emitting element emits light; and an authentication circuit that authenticates the user based on a vein pattern obtained in advance and the image.

A method for detecting motion information includes the following steps. First, a pixel array is provided for detecting an image of a measured object located in a first distance range or in a second distance range, and the pixel array includes a plurality of invisible image sensing pixels and a plurality of visible image sensing pixels. Then, image detection is conducted within the first distance range by using the invisible image sensing pixels to output a plurality of invisible images. Next, the image detection is conducted within the second distance range by using the visible image sensing pixels to output a plurality of visible images. Then, the plurality of invisible images and the plurality of visible images are analyzed by using a processing unit, so as to obtain motion information of the measured object. A pixel array for detecting motion information and an image sensor are also provided.

A detection device includes: a first detector which irradiates light onto the target object and detects light emitted from the target object; a first shape information generator which generates first shape information representing a first shape of the target object on the basis of a detection result of the first detector; and a second shape information generator which adds a second shape, which is based on information different from the detection result of the first detector, to the first shape, and which generates second shape information representing a shape including the first shape and the second shape.

A system and method for authenticating a user of a device. A multi-band biometric iris scan camera system is capable of obtaining an iris image using near-infrared (NIR) light and/or visible wavelength (VW) light. The camera system can initially image a user to detect the iris color of the user and, based on the iris color, determine whether to use the NIR iris scan or the VW iris scan. Additionally, NIR and VW systems can be operated as integrated camera systems. The iris scan camera system can take a series of images and compare against a database of anonymous iris images captured at different illumination conditions, for selecting a preferred illumination condition for capturing the iris and performing authentication. The iris scan camera system can optionally track eye movement to determine when to trigger an iris scan, identify obstructions to the iris such as eyelids and eyelashes to implement corrective measures in the iris image processing, and identify facial features to determine whether the left and/or right eye is being imaged.
