ABSTRACT:
In this invention, a facial image is sensed from different directions, pupil and nasal cavity regions are detected from the sensed facial image, feature points are detected from the detected regions, a feature pattern is extracted on the basis of the feature points, and the feature pattern is registered or is verified with a registered feature pattern to identify a person.
