BIOMETRIC CAMERA MOUNT SYSTEM
A system for reducing the substantially vertical extent of a wide-area biometric system and for reducing the cost and complexity of installation while maintaining high biometric performance, using a substantially horizontally configuration of cameras, preferably with an attention mechanism, and using a precision calibration system that can be used by an unskilled technician and that does not require an accurate site survey or additional materials or equipment.
1 . A biometric system comprising:
two or more camera sensors with a physical arrangement that is substantially horizontal, each of the two or more camera sensors monitoring a respective region of interest, the respective regions spatially fixed with respect to one another in a substantially vertical arrangement;
a camera housing module housing the two or r more camera sensors; and
a biometric housing module comprising a pivot for the camera housing module, and an adjustment mechanism allowing adjustment of a vertical orientation of the camera housing module relative to the biometric housing module at the pivot.
