Title:
顔照合装置および顔照合方法
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4036051
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
The present invention is to protect the right of portrait or privacy of people (10B to 10F) other than a specific person (10A), and to enable easy recognition of information other than the face (11) of the specific person (10A) and the situation around the specific person (10A). Images videotaped by the surveillance cameras (1) are captured in the computer (3), face images are detected therefrom, and the detected face images are compared with the face image of a specific person (10A) registered in the storage device (5). As the results of the comparison, when these face images do not match with each other, a mosaic process (12) is applied exclusively to the detected face images to protect the privacy of the people (10B to 10F) other than the specific person (10A), whereas the mosaic process (12) is not applied to the parts other than the faces, such as dress and baggage, thereby keeping them as they are. When these face images match with each other, the face image of the specific person (10A) is not applied with the mosaic process (12), thereby keeping his or her face (11) and remaining parts as they are.
