Operation​

    • Ambient Brightness: Adjusts the intensity of the IR LED by detecting ambient brightness. Change settings according to the installation environment.

    • Motion Sensor: Set the sensitivity to detect motion around the device. When Motion Sensor is set to Off, touch the screen to authenticate your face.

    • Auth Timeout: If authentication is not completed within the set time, authentication fails.

    • Server Matching: When server matching is set, the device does not perform user authentication; BioStar X performs user authentication. It can be used when the device has too much user information or when the device is installed outside.

      Info

      • Server Matching can only use cards and IDs.

      • If you use Server Matching, you must enable server matching on both the device and BioStar X. For more information about BioStar X server matching settings, refer to the BioStar X Administrator Guide.

    • Face Pose Variation: Set the sensitivity for face position, angle, and distance when registering a face. Set high for precise face templates.

    • Enroll Timeout: If the face is not enrolled within the set time, the face registration will be canceled.

    • Duplicate Check: You can check for duplicate faces during face registration.

Facial recognition​

You can change the configuration for facial authentication.

  1. Click and authenticate with administrator privileges.

  2. After pressing AUTHENTICATION, change the desired item in Face Recognition.

    • Security Level: You can set the security level for 1:N authentication.

    • Group Matching: You can check whether group matching is used. Using group matching allows you to group multiple users' faces to increase authentication speed.

    • Backward Compatibility (Enrollment in v1.0.1): Enable this option if the firmware of the device that registers face templates is v1.0.1 or earlier.

    • Enhanced fake face enrollment block: This can prevent user registration using spoofed faces such as photos. You can set the intensity from Level 1 to Level 3, and as the level increases, the inspection intensity strengthens.

    • Quick Enroll: You can set whether to use fast face registration. When fast face registration is enabled, the face registration process is set to one step, and when disabled, it is set to three steps.

      Info

      • Group Matching can be set in BioStar X.

      • If Enhanced fake face enrollment block is set to a high level, the registration of real faces may be rejected. If the registration fails, try again or lower the inspection intensity.

      • To register high-quality face templates, disable Quick Enroll.
