ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a facial feature verification apparatus capable of synthesizing an image suitable for verification to identify a person subjected to surveillance whom surveillance staff desires to watch. The facial feature verification apparatus includes a plurality of pickup units1, a pickup controlling unit2for controlling the pickup units1, a displaying unit3for displaying images picked up by the pickup units1, and a verifying unit4for detecting a person from the picked up images, extracting a facial image by determining a face area of the person, extracting a facial image from the images picked up by the pickup units1, synthesizing a plurality of facial features by extracting facial features from the extracted facial images, and verifying the synthesized facial features with the facial features enrolled in advance in a facial image database5.
