The invention relates to a sign-in method based on multi-mode recognition. The sign-in method comprises the steps of: acquiring face video images and
fingerprint information of identity information recognizing people; automatically detecting
infrared rays on the surface of human bodies by means of a pyroelectric
infrared sensor which is arranged on the surface of sign-in equipment, and controlling the sign-in equipment to turn on by the pyroelectric
infrared sensor when staff enters a sign-in sensing region; selecting the face
video image under the appropriate illumination intensity background according to the illumination intensity during sign in, matching the selected face
video image with acquired facial image data, and matching fingerprints of the staff with acquired
fingerprint information, and calculating a matched-degree
score result A; and selecting the face
video image under the appropriate illumination intensity background again according to the illumination intensity during sign in, matching the selected face video image with the acquired facial image data, and matching the fingerprints of the staff with the acquired
fingerprint information, and calculating a matched-degree
score result B. The sign-in method has the advantages of accurate judgment, good reliability, low price and wide application.
