Abstract

Iris recognition is regarded as the most reliable biometrics and has been widely applied in both public and personal security areas. However users have to highly cooperate with the iris cameras to make his iris images well captured. In this paper, we aim to discuss whether and how we can make iris recognition easier. Firstly the restricting factors of iris image acquisition are analyzed and the optical formulas are derived. Then the solutions of state-of-the-art iris recognition systems are reviewed and summarized. Finally, we propose two novel iris recognition systems with good human-computer-interface but with two different strategies which respectively meet the requirements of low-end and high-end market.
