摘要:
An imaging device includes a transparent prismatic element having two contiguous inlet surfaces separated by a ridge. A lens and an image sensor make it possible to acquire images, each including a reproduction of a first pattern located against one of the inlet surfaces, and a reproduction of a second imaged pattern through the other inlet surface. Such a device can be used in a biometric detection apparatus for detecting both a skin print and the vein distribution of a user. The device can also be used in a reading terminal capable of detecting a skin print and a machine-readable tape.

A device is provided that generates a composite image using a first image and a second image having different exposure conditions. The device includes an image input unit, a likelihood calculating unit, an exposure estimating unit, and a compositing unit. The image input unit inputs the first image and the second image. The likelihood calculating unit calculates a subject motion likelihood at each pixel based on a difference between the first image and the second image. The exposure estimating unit estimates an exposure transform function that conforms the exposure conditions of the first image and the second image to each other based on the subject motion likelihood. The compositing unit composites the first image and the second image by using the exposure transform function.

A database comprising biometric data stored in encrypted form is managed by a management unit. It comprises a set of filters respectively associated with filter identifiers. A biometric data item is received at a management unit; next, said biometric data item is stored in an encrypted form at a given address in the database. Then keywords are obtained on the basis of a first set of hash functions and of the biometric data item. A subset of indexing filters is associated with each keyword by selecting, for each keyword, filters as a function of the respectively associated filter identifiers, of said keywords, and of a second set of hash functions; and the given address is associated with each of the filters of the subset of filters.

A method and apparatus for partially up/downscaling an image encoded on a macroblock basis. The method and apparatus performs operations of: storing the encoded image; creating map data from bitstream of the encoded image to decode at least one macroblock of the encoded image, creating a shrunken image of a predetermined size based on resolution of a display device, storing the map data and the shrunken image so as to relate with the encoded image; outputting the shrunken image related with the encoded image to be displayed based on a control request received from an input device; determining at least one macroblock to be decoded based on a display area of the shrunken image; partially decoding the encoded image for the determined macroblock using the map data; and outputting to the display device, the image data of the display area of the partially decoded image.
摘要:
A method of securing execution of a main program that implements nested functions, the method comprising the steps of executing a security management program arranged to update a list of current functions, informing the security management program of the beginning of execution of each function of the main program and updating the list of current functions, informing the security management program of the end of execution of each function, and, after being informed of each end of execution of a function, verifying that the function is indeed the function that was begun the most recently.

A security gate has two walls defining between them a passage through which an individual passes, for each wall, a transparent lighting window extending over at least part of the wall, for at least one of the edges of the lighting window, a light source intended to light the edge and to generate light beams that propagate through the thickness of the lighting window, and for each lighting window, at least one extraction zone provided on the lighting window and intended to transmit the light beams towards the face of the individual passing through the passage, the light beams thus transmitted forming, with respect to the plane of the lighting window from which they emanate, an angle adapted to the geometry of the security gate so as to optimize the lighting of the individual.
摘要:
A method for identifying a substance includes determining a first molecular interference function (MIF) for a first substance. The method also includes determining a second MIF for a second substance. The method further includes generating a residual MIF at least partially based on a comparison of the second MIF to the first MIF. The method also includes identifying the type of substance based on the residual MIF.

The invention concerns a method for executing cryptographic calculation in an electronic component, based on a specific cryptographic algorithm including at least one secret key operation (102) to be performed with a secret encryption key (103) comprising m secret encryption key blocks of n bits on a data block (101), wherein m and n are positive integers, and a non-linear operation (107). It consists in determining 2n−1 secondary secret keys (105) on n bits different from the secret encryption key block; then, for a given secret encryption key block, performing the secret key operation (102) with the secret encryption key block (103) and performing the secret key operation (102) with the secondary secret keys on a data block (101) and obtaining respectively a data block being encrypted (104) and 2n−1 secondary data blocks (106); then performing the non-linear operation (107) of the data block being encrypted (104) and on the secondary blocks (106); supplying data block encrypted from the data block being encrypted.
摘要:
A sampling system that contains filter components for collecting and concentrating vapor and particles in high-volume flows. The sample is then vaporized and delivered to a detector at a low-volume flow. The invention also has a sampling probe that contains an air-jet to help dislodge particles from surfaces and a heating lamp to help vaporize compounds on surfaces or objects. The sampling system is especially useful for screening for explosives and other illicit chemicals and toxins on people, baggage, cargo, and other objects.
摘要:
A sampling device that contains a heated porous inlet and a transfer line. The device provides sample compounds present as vapor, liquid, or solid, in air, or on surfaces such as soil. The sample device can collect and deliver the sample to an analyzer in real time and can operate while in motion such as on a moving vehicle. The sampling device is especially useful to screen toxic and hazardous compounds that might be contaminating an inhabited area.
