Abstract: Collecting images of a patron in an entertainment venue is performed by facial recognition of the patron's face within the images, simplifying the storage and distribution of the images for a patron. In order to enhance the reliability of the facial recognition system, information about the patron that is not directly related to most facial recognition systems, including clothes, height, other associated people, use of glasses and jewelry, disposition of facial hair, and more, can be used. Some of the characteristics used can be specific to a particular date or event, and which will not be more generally characteristic of the patron. The facial recognition system can also be used to identify the patron requesting images to be collected. The present invention also relates to the use of facial recognition in sorting and collecting images from an electronically-stored image collection, enabling the easy retrieval of images that are related to a particular person or set of people.

Abstract translation: 在娱乐场所收集顾客的图像是通过对图像中的顾客脸部进行面部识别来进行的，从而简化了顾客的图像的存储和分发。 为了提高面部识别系统的可靠性，关于与大多数面部识别系统（包括衣服，身高，其他相关人群，眼镜和珠宝的使用，面部毛发的处理等）不直接相关的顾客的信息， 可以使用。 所使用的一些特征可以特定于特定的日期或事件，并且不会更普遍地是顾客的特征。 面部识别系统也可用于识别要求收集图像的顾客。 本发明还涉及面部识别在从电子存储的图像集合中分类和收集图像的使用，使得能够容易地检索与特定人或一组人相关的图像。
