Method for prohibiting a person with a facial mask to operate an automatic teller machine
First Claim
1. A method for prohibiting a person with a facial mask to operate an automatic teller machine, comprising the following steps of:
- a. arranging a visual spectrum image capturing unit and an alarm unit approaching an automatic teller machine (ATM);
b. capturing a subject visible spectrum picture of an experimental subject via said visual spectrum image capturing unit;
c. judging if said subject picture shows generic features of a human face;
if said face features are recognized as false, it then directly goes to Step g.;
d. if said face features are recognized as true, a facial temperature of the subject is detected to gain a measured temperature;
e. comparing said measured temperature with a predetermined reference temperature;
if said measured temperature resulting from the comparison fails to be within a range of said reference temperature, it is determined as a spurious human face and then directly proceeds said Step g.;
f. if said measured temperature resulting from the comparison is within the range of said reference temperature, it is determined as a genuine human face and said ATM is allowably operated without proceeding said Step g.; and
g. triggering said alarm unit to transmit a warning signal without operating the ATM.

Abstract
A method for prohibiting a person with a facial mask to operate an automatic teller machine essentially includes the followings steps of: a) arranging a visual spectrum camera and an alarm unit approaching an automatic teller machine (ATM); b) capturing a facial picture of an experimental subject via the camera; c) judging if the picture performs generic facial features of a human face; if false, proceed Step g); d) if true, a facial temperature of the subject is detected to gain a measured temperature; e) comparing the measured temperature with a predetermined reference temperature; if the measured temperature is not within the reference temperature range, a spurious human face is determined and Step g) goes on; f) if the measured temperature is within the reference temperature range, a genuine human face is determined and the ATM is allowably operated without proceeding Step g); and g) activating the alarm unit to transmit a warning signal without operating the ATM.
