Abstract:
Method to customize an application associated with a television experience based on the recognition of users located in front of a display and in the field of view of a camera, comprising the following steps:
an initialization step during which each user is enrolled in a database of a computer system and is defined by a profile referenced by a profile ID and comprising the user name, biometric data and additional personal data,
a finding step during which a wide image, acquired by said camera is scanned to isolate at least one user's faces, to define a marking area surrounding it, to memorize the position of said marking areas,
a matching step to extract the biometric data from said marking area, to match them with the biometric data of the profiles stored in the database, and to assign the detected profile ID with the marking area.
While subsequent identification is requested by the application, the following steps are executed
acquiring a wide image with the camera,
extracting the areas of said image according to the marking areas,
extracting for a particular marking area the biometric data of a face,
starting the comparison of the extracted biometric data with the biometric data of the profile ID related to this marking area, and in absence of match, continuing with the other biometric data of the database until one profile is found,
transmitting the found profile ID to the application.
