Passportless entry-exit system

Abstract

To provide a system which performs immigration inspection that is safer and less likely to generate fraud, without the need of a passport, by registering in advance, by a smartphone or a PC, a face photograph image of a person for face authentication, a copy of a personal certificate such as a license and an Individual Number Card, and required personal information of the person.SOLUTION: A passportless entry-exit system determines, in addition to face authentication, dress and posture of a person, personal information, an X-ray image of baggage, and synthetic consistency (=level of uncomfortable feeling) of walking style="gait authentication". Initially, AI applies a score of the consistency, and when the score of the consistency is low (the score of the uncomfortable feeling is high), an operator instructs a clerk to conduct an inquiry of the person. When contents of the baggage and the dress inappropriate for sightseeing are found, the clerk inquires the reason. If there is a problem (omen of a crime etc.), the problem is prevented in advance.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This invention proposes a technology for a system for conducting immigration inspections that does not require a passport, is safer, and is less prone to fraud, by allowing the person to register a photograph of their face for facial recognition, a copy of their identification such as a driver's license or My Number card, and any necessary personal information in advance on a smartphone or PC. [Background technology]

[0002] With the conventional immigration procedures using passports, there were problems with people using facial plastic surgery to impersonate others and with passport forgery, and passport and personal inspections often resulted in long queues, making immigration procedures time-consuming. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Patent application 2021-018548 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] In addition to facial recognition, the AI ​​will first determine the overall consistency (level of incongruity) of the person's clothing, posture, personal information, X-ray images of their baggage, and even their walking style (gait recognition).In other words, the AI ​​will assign a score to the consistency, and if the consistency score is low (the incongruity score is high), the operator will instruct an attendant to question the person.For example, if the contents of the baggage or clothing are inappropriate for tourism, the reason will be asked, and if there is a problem (such as a sign of a crime), it can be prevented before it happens. Note: Gait recognition is a technology in which AI analyzes the way a person walks to identify them. In the future, we believe it will be possible to create groups of people with similar walking patterns, name and categorize these groups, and add the group name to the person's entry and exit information. If someone has plastic surgery, kills someone, and then impersonates them, it would be possible to check this by the type of gait they use. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] At the entrance to the airport gate where baggage is checked with an X-ray camera and people's clothing is inspected with a metal detector, a door that can be opened and closed by a remote operator is installed, and a facial recognition camera, a camera that takes a full picture of the person from the front, and a camera that checks the person's gait from the side are also installed.AI will comprehensively check the consistency of the person's facial image and personal information registered in advance on a PC or smartphone, the image from the facial recognition camera, the image from the baggage inspection with the X-ray camera, the full image of the person from the front (mainly checking clothing), and the video of the person's gait from the side (determining the type of gait recognition), and assign a score. If the total score is low, the operator will inform the staff of the score and the reason for the low score, and will give instructions for questioning the person. If any suspicious points are found as a result of the questioning, the police will be called if necessary to conduct a detailed investigation. For example, if the purpose is tourism but multiple suits are identified in the X-ray images, or if the suit includes items that are not considered to be related to tourism, the AI ​​will give it a low overall consistency score. In addition, the details of the above series of processes and various image data will be recorded for each full name and stored for a certain number of years. [Effects of the Invention]

[0006] This invention will eliminate the need for passports, make it impossible to forge passports, and make it impossible to kill someone and then impersonate them through plastic surgery to make them look like the person, thereby leading to crime prevention, including preventing criminals from fleeing the country. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0007] [Figure 1] An overview of the passportless entry / exit system is shown below. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0008] At the entrance to the airport gate where baggage is checked with an X-ray camera and people's clothing is inspected with a metal detector, a door that can be opened and closed by a remote operator is installed, and a facial recognition camera, a camera that takes a full picture of the person from the front, and a camera that checks the person's gait from the side are also installed.AI will comprehensively check the consistency of the person's facial image and personal information registered in advance on a PC or smartphone, the image from the facial recognition camera, the image from the baggage inspection with the X-ray camera, the full image of the person from the front (mainly checking clothing), and the video of the person's gait from the side (determining the type of gait recognition), and assign a score. If the total score is low, the operator will inform the staff of the score and the reason for the low score, and will give instructions for questioning the person. If any suspicious points are found as a result of the questioning, the police will be called if necessary to conduct a detailed investigation. For example, if the purpose is tourism but multiple suits are identified in the X-ray images, or if the suit includes items that are not considered to be related to tourism, the AI ​​will give it a low overall consistency score. In addition, the details of the above series of processes and various image data will be recorded for each full name and stored for a certain number of years.

[0009] Figure 1 depicts the gate entrance just before departure, which is a common sight at international airports, where personal belongings are checked with metal detectors and carry-on baggage is checked with X-rays. A passportless immigration system in which a door that can be opened and closed by a remote operator is installed at the entrance to an airport gate where baggage is checked by an X-ray camera and people's clothing is inspected with a metal detector, and a facial recognition camera, a camera that takes a full image of the person from the front, and a camera that checks the person's gait from the side are also installed, and AI comprehensively checks the consistency of the person's facial image and personal information registered in advance on a PC or smartphone, the image from the facial recognition camera, the image from the baggage inspection taken by the X-ray camera, the full image of the person from the front (mainly checking clothing and posture), and the video of the person's gait checked from the side (determining the type of gait recognition), and assigns a score; if the score calculated by the AI ​​is high, the operator will open the door, and if the score is low, the remote operator will inform the official of the overall score and the reason for the low score, and can issue instructions for the person's medical interview. The consistency score evaluation performed by the AI ​​may differ from airport to airport, and the score threshold for whether to proceed to a medical interview may be flexible depending on the congestion situation. [Industrial Applicability]

[0010] This invention will eliminate the need for passports, make it impossible to forge passports, and make it impossible to kill someone and then impersonate them through plastic surgery to make them look like the person, thereby leading to crime prevention, including preventing criminals from fleeing the country.
