Zhongke Hongba was founded on the basis of iris recognition technology of Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences. The core algorithm of iris recognition is the research achievement accumulated by the State Key Laboratory of Pattern Recognition of Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences 10 for many years, and won the second prize of national technological invention in 2005. In 2008 and 20 10, they won the international iris recognition algorithm open in Nice respectively. I and NICE. Ii performed well twice (please visit the website http://nice 1.di.ubi.pt/ and http://nice2.di.ubi.pt/ for details). The company's main creative staff consists of scientific and technological backbones and experts from Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and has a research and development and technical support team composed of senior professional technicians (professional technicians account for more than 60% of the company's total number, including 65,438+05% of doctors and 25% of masters). They have in-depth academic research and rich practical experience in product development and application engineering, and are competent for the development, maintenance and technical support of complex systems.
Up to now, Zhongke Hongba and Automation Institute * * * have applied for 25 iris patents, including 18 invention patents, 4 utility model patents and 3 appearance patents, and obtained software copyrights, covering all aspects of iris recognition software and hardware systems.
In 2007, Zhongke Hongba successfully launched the first embedded and networked iris recognition device in China, equipped with a unique active visual feedback device, with friendly user interface, convenient use and high speed. It is also the world's first iris recognition device equipped with LCD screen for user feedback.
The recognition rate of the core algorithm adopted by Zhongke Hongba is equivalent to that of the highest algorithm in the world (the method of Professor Daugman of Cambridge University, UK), and the test results have been published in international authoritative academic journals such as IEEE Transactions on Image Processing (IEEE T-IP). In 2008 and 20 10, the algorithm of Institute of Automation of Chinese Academy of Sciences won the first prize twice for its excellent performance. In addition, on the basis of strict testing of the algorithm and satisfactory results, Sarnoff Company of the United States and IrisGuard Company of the United Kingdom successively purchased the license of the algorithm.
Zhongke Hongba's iris recognizer adopts active visual feedback, which has unique advantages. In non-contact iris acquisition equipment, feedback devices are needed to guide users to achieve alignment. At present, other iris recognition products on the market all use blind visual feedback, that is, a feedback device similar to a mirror is used to assist the user in alignment, so it is difficult to achieve "what you see is what you get" in iris image acquisition, because the user directly aligns according to the mirror image. However, due to the user's different eye habits, the division of labor between the main eye and the auxiliary eye of the left eye, and the position difference between the camera and the mirror, there will be differences between the mirror image and the actual camera image. As a result, the users themselves think that they are aligned, but in fact they cannot obtain the appropriate image. The iris recognition acquisition equipment of Zhongke Hongba adopts active visual feedback, that is, the real content collected by the camera is fed back to the user in the form of image display, and the user can easily adjust the relative position between the human eye and the camera. Different from the passive visual feedback in the past, users see the collected results, thus realizing the real "what you see is what you get".
