Face image obtaining method and apparatus
View Patent ↗A face image obtaining apparatus which includes: a biological information preliminarily obtaining means for preliminarily obtaining biological information of a user; a biological information determining means for determining whether the biological information obtained by the biological information preliminarily obtaining means is applicable to biometric authentication; a biological information storing means for storing the biological information as biometric authentication information if the biological information is determined to be applicable to biometric authentication by the biological information determining means; an input means for obtaining biological information of the user through inputting action of the user for obtaining a face image of the user; and a face image obtaining and storing means. The face image obtaining and storing means obtains and stores the face image of the user if the biological information obtained through the inputting action of the user matches the biometric authentication information.
1. A face image obtaining method, comprising the steps of:
preliminarily obtaining at least one of finger-related biological information, hand-related biological information, and voiceprint as biological information of a user by a biological information preliminarily obtaining means;
determining whether the biological information is applicable to biometric authentication by a biological information determining means;
storing the biological information as biometric authentication information by a biological information storing means if the biological information is determined to be applicable to biometric authentication;
obtaining the biological information and a face image of the user through inputting action of the user by using an input means for obtaining the face image thereof; and
storing the face image of the user by a face image storing means if the biological information obtained through the inputting action of the user matches the biometric authentication information.
2. The face image obtaining method according to claim 1 , wherein the biological information is a fingerprint, and the input means has a fingerprint obtaining function.
3. The face image obtaining method according to claim 1 , wherein the biological information is a voice print, and the input means has a voiceprint obtaining function.
4. A face image obtaining apparatus, comprising:
a biological information preliminarily obtaining means for preliminarily obtaining at least one of finger-related biological information, hand-related biological information, and voiceprint as biological information of a user;
a biological information determining means for determining whether the biological information obtained by the biological information preliminarily obtaining means is applicable to biometric authentication;
a biological information storing means for storing the biological information as biometric authentication information if the biological information is determined to be applicable to biometric authentication by the biological information determining means;
a face image obtaining means for obtaining a face image of the user;
an input means utilized for obtaining a face image of the user by the face image obtaining means, wherein the input means is capable of obtaining the biological information of the user through inputting action of the user for obtaining a face image thereof; and
a face image storing means for storing the face image of the user obtained by the face image obtaining means if the biological information obtained through the inputting action of the user matches the biometric authentication information.
5. The face image obtaining apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the biological information is a fingerprint, and the input means has a fingerprint obtaining function.
6. The face image obtaining apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the biological information is a voiceprint, and the input means has a voiceprint obtaining function.
