Iris Recognition Terminal for Physical Condition Assessment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing user terminals lack a method to effectively determine and provide feedback on a user's physical condition during iris recognition, which is essential for security and health monitoring, and do not utilize the iris image efficiently for various authentication and diagnostic purposes.
Innovation Solution
A user terminal capable of acquiring an iris image, determining the capturing conditions, converting the image to an iris code, and performing iris recognition to determine the user's physical condition based on a preset matching rate, while providing feedback through a user interface that includes health notifications and self-diagnosis options.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If iris recognition is performed by capturing an image of the user's eye, then authentication security is improved, but the system cannot provide feedback on the user's physical condition
Solution Approach 1:
The iris recognition system is enhanced to perform multiple functions: not only authentication by comparing iris codes, but also health monitoring by analyzing the captured iris image for physical condition assessment. The same image capture and processing infrastructure is utilized for dual purposes, making the system universal and multi-functional without requiring separate dedicated devices.
Solution Approach 2:
The system introduces feedback by analyzing the captured iris image to determine the user's physical condition and providing this information back to the user. This feedback mechanism transforms the one-way authentication process into a two-way interaction where the user receives valuable health information from their own biometric data.
2Productivity
If the captured iris image is used solely for authentication, then processing speed is improved, but the system fails to utilize the image for diagnostic purposes
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs partial analysis of the iris image - it extracts and processes only the specific features necessary for both authentication (iris code comparison) and diagnostic purposes (physical condition indicators). This partial action approach allows dual functionality without requiring complete re-processing of the entire image, thus maintaining processing efficiency while enabling diagnostic capabilities.
3Reliability
If multiple authentication methods are introduced, then security reliability is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system merges the authentication function and health monitoring function into a single integrated process. By combining these functions, the system achieves enhanced reliability through multiple authentication methods while avoiding the complexity increase that would result from implementing separate independent systems for each function.

AI summary
A user terminal and a providing method thereof are provided. The method includes acquiring an iris image, determining a capturing condition of the iris image, converting the acquired iris image to an iris code and performing iris recognition by comparing the converted iris code with an iris code corresponding to a determined capturing condition among pre-registered iris codes, determining a physical condition of a user who is subject to the iris recognition on the basis of an iris recognition matching rate being within a preset range, and providing a determined physical condition result.
