precise biometric automotive licensing deal
LG Electronics ignition system, Precise Biometrics automotive licensing deals unveiled
Car owners may soon be able to start up their cars using a face biometrics ignition solution rather than their car keys. This is possible thanks to the development of a system by LG Electronics which enables a car owner to start their car by having their facial expressions and finger movements recognized using in-built cameras, reports Digitimes. Explaining how the system works, the report states that the car owner's specific body parts are captured with one camera, and informs adjustments by the other camera, which captures their iris and other biometric characteristics. The car owner can then start up their cars and make certain controls to it using facial expressions and hand gestures. The report adds that the system is able to detect if a driver is tired or abruptly takes ill, from their facial and hand gestures as they drive.
