TrueFace Network

Miros, Inc. has introduced TrueFace Network, a product that uses Miros' face recognition technology to secure networked computer systems. The product records the faces of authorized personnel and creates unique and personal keys which unlock access to a company's applications and data.

Rather than remembering passwords and token cards, users need only to look at their computer to gain access. Users can logon to the network within seconds of sitting down to their computers. Built in fraud detection allows the product to distinguish photographs from faces. TrueFace also provides an audit image of each logon attempt, notifying administrators of unauthorized attempts to access the network.

Beyond its internal capabilities, TrueFace Network allows remote users to subscribe over the network from an off-site PC or workstation. This function enables users to enroll from wherever they may be logging onto the network, ensuring flexibility and convenience.

Using an inexpensive video camera attached to a PC or workstation, a facial image is compared to previously enrolled images. The TrueFace technology is based on a neural network, mimicking the way the brain works, to ensure proper recognition.
