Mobile Face Recognition
"Omron yesterday announced OKOA, software for camera phones that enables face recognition security. The phone must have a OKOA Vision Face Recognition Sensor to be compatible. To use the unit, the user simply takes his or her own photo... [OKOA] will automatically detect the user and unlock the unit. The verification process takes less than a second from snapping the photograph. The sensor tests successfully more than 99 times in 100, and is fully Symbian, BREW, embedded Linux, and ITRON OS compatible."
Interesting. I think that phone cameras need to get a lot better than they are now for this to work. I can imagine a group of business people just getting off of a plane making faces at their phones trying to get their expression just right so the phone will recognize them. :lol:
