Iris Recognition Using Less Expensive Camera
ABSTRACT
The demand for an accurate biometric system that provides reliable identification and
verification of an individual has increased over the years. A biometric system that provides
reliable and accurate identification of an individual is an iris recognition system. Iris
recognition systems capture an image of an individual's eye; the iris image is the segmented
and normalized for feature extraction process. The performance of iris recognition systems
highly depends on segmentation and normalization. Segmentation is used for the localization
of the correct iris region in an eye and it should be done accurately to remove the eyelids,
eyelashes, reflection and pupil noises present in iris region This project presents an efficient
algorithm for iris recognition using Hough Transform. In our project we are using Hough
Transform segmentation method for Iris Recognition. The Captured iris image is segmented
and normalized for feature extraction process. Iris images are selected from the Database, then
the iris and pupil boundary are detected from rest of the eye image, removing the noises. The
segmented iris region was normalized to minimize the dimensional inconsistencies between
iris regions. Most of biometric recognition algorithms employ computer vision, pattern
recognition and image processing techniques or their combination. For the implementation of
this proposed work we use the Image Processing Toolbox under Matlab software.
