Abstract :
Abstract-Personal identification systems based on physical characteristics are becoming increasingly popular. However, the use of facial characteristics for identification purposes has not been practical because false reproduction of a person´s face is not especially difficult. Then, this paper proposes a method of using the color shades produced when a face is directly irradiated with a light, which is expected to defeat false certification attempts that use still or dynamic images.
