Systems and methods employing unique optics, combined with data gathering techniques that capture user interaction in the system at the point of engagement and point of entry. This facilitates gathering real time data on users, customers or other people during engagement with elements of the system to provide analytics in real time.

A station device in a biometric pre-identification system uses identity to perform one or more actions. Identities are determined (such as via a backend) using biometric information. A biometric pre-identification device obtains biometric information and/or a digital representation thereof from a person approaching the station device. The biometric pre-identification device transmits such to the station device, facilitating the station to begin and/or perform various actions. The station device begins or performs the actions using the identity determined based on the biometric information before the person arrives at the station device.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for determining the number of speakers in a video and a corresponding audio using visual context. In one aspect, a method includes detecting within the video multiple speakers, determining a bounding box for each detected speaker that includes the detected person and objects within a threshold distance of the detected person in an image frame, determining a unique descriptor for that person based in part on image information depicting the objects within the bounding box, determining a cardinality of unique speakers in the video, providing to the speaker diarization system the cardinality of unique speakers.

In general, techniques are described by which provide confirmed automated access to portions of vehicles. A control system comprising a processor, and a memory may be configured to perform the techniques. The memory may store instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to determine that the authorized operator of the vehicle is intending to access a portion of the vehicle, and output, responsive to determination, a confirmation request to the authorized operator. The confirmation request may request confirmation that the authorized operator is intending to access the portion of the vehicle. The memory may also store instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to receive, from the authorized operator, a confirmation response indicating whether the authorized operator is intending to access at least the portion of the vehicle, and automatically open, based on the confirmation response, at least the portion of the vehicle.

A person tracking support device includes a processor. The processor acquires identification information of a tracked person identified from a face image of a person imaged by a first camera, and a first time at which the tracked person is imaged by the first camera, and also acquires a second time at which the tracked person is imaged by a second camera positioned away from the first camera, predicts a time at which the tracked person reaches a specific area on the basis of an elapsed time from the first time to the second time and a distance from the first camera to the second camera, and notifies a mobile terminal device possessed by each of a plurality of observers of the identification information of the tracked person, the specific area, and the time predicted.

Apparatus and methods for enhanced 3D visualization includes receiving a plurality of images of an image scene from a plurality of image sensors. Depth information at locations of the image scene is received from a plurality of depth sensors. The depth information is combined with the plurality of images of the image scene using a machine learning model. A 3D representation of the image scene is generated based on the combined depth and image information.

A method, computer system, and computer program product are provided for controlling data access and visibility using a context-based security policy. A request from an endpoint device to receive data is received at a server, wherein the request includes one or more contextual attributes of the endpoint device including an identity of a user of the endpoint device. The one or more contextual attributes are processed to determine that the endpoint device is authorized to receive the data. A security policy is determined for the data based on the one or more contextual attributes. The data is transmitted, including the security policy, to the endpoint device, wherein the endpoint devices enforces the security policy to selectively permit access to the data by preventing the endpoint device from displaying the data to an unauthorized individual.

Techniques for automated facial measurement are provided. A set of coordinate locations for a set of facial landmarks on a face of a user are extracted by processing a first image using one or more landmark-detection machine learning models. An orientation of the face of the user is determined. It is determined that impedance conditions are not present in the set of images, and a reference distance on the face of the user is estimated based on the first image, where the first image depicts the user facing towards the imaging sensor. A nose depth of the user is estimated based on a second image of the set of images based at least in part on the reference distance, where the second image depicts the user facing at an angle relative to the imaging sensor. A facial mask is selected for the user based on the nose depth.

In an example implementation according to aspects of the present disclosure, a system, method, and storage medium for processing digital image file metadata characteristics. The system includes a processor and memory. The processor executes machine readable instructions to receive a set of digital image files from a first client application. The processor extracts a set of metadata from the set of digital image files. The processor identifies a set of common characteristics within the set of metadata. The processor groups the set of digital image files based on the set of common characteristics. The processor evaluates an association between the set of common characteristics and a second user. Responsive to the evaluation, the processor sends the grouped set of digital image files to a second client application.

A method and system (102) for grouping same persons are provided. The system (102) includes: a database (104) for storing person specific data of a plurality of reference persons in a hierarchical structure; an input module (206) for receiving person specific data of a target person; and a similarity search module (212) for searching the database (104) for data similar to the person specific data of the target person.
