Face Recognition: Login by Looking At Your PC

The new face identification and face verification features of Luxand FaceSDK allow developers build non-intrusive biometric authentication systems, and effectively enable touchless logins by simply looking into a webcam.

Traditional Biometric Identification

Biometric identification is the fastest, most secure and most convenient method of identifying computer users. When talking about biometrics, most people think of fingerprints. Many don't feel good giving away their fingerprints here and there, considering this to violate their privacy. Iris scan is another option that involves expensive hardware and exotic software. For this reason, iris-based identification is mostly used in the airports.

Face-Based Biometric Identification

The least obtrusive and least objectionable method of biometric identification is based on images of a human face. Just looking into a webcam for a second enables instant identification, effectively allowing computer users to login into their PCs by simply looking at it.

Enhance Your Products with Biometric Login

FaceSDK offers an exciting opportunity of building face-based biometric identification into desktop and online applications. The innovative product enables software developers enhance their applications with face identification, effectively allowing biometric identification by simply looking into a webcam. Unlike fingerprint or iris-based identification systems, Luxand provides a method for touchless, non-intrusive biometric authentication.

Reliable Identification

The new face identification algorithms will automatically look up a face in a database, and identify the user based on a picture of a face alone. Unlike competing technologies, Luxand FacecSDK detects facial features of each face, and compares the faces feature by feature. The technology provides reliable face verification, and allows analyzing the degree of similarity of any two faces. Comprehensive FERET tests confirm the reliability of the new Luxand technology.

Face Recognition SDK for Software and Web Developers

Luxand FaceSDK is a high-performance library for detecting human faces and recognizing facial features. Aimed at software developers and webmasters, the library can detect multiple faces on a single photo, recognize facial features and identify faces from a database completely automatically. FaceSDK employs sophisticated algorithms to detect and identify human faces on digital pictures quickly and reliably no matter the quality or resolution of the original image, allowing for fast and reliable identification based on input from even low-resolution webcams. The detection and identification of faces does not require any human interaction.

Compatibility

Luxand FaceSDK is implemented as a highly compatible Win32 DLL that works with all 32 and 64-bit versions of Windows, and supports many popular development environments. Microsoft Visual C++ and Borland Delphi users get all necessary header files, making it easy to integrate with new or existing projects.
