First Claim
1. An apparatus for iris image acquisition and positioning of an iris of a subject for iris image acquisition, the apparatus comprising:
- a sensor configured to acquire an image of the iris of the subject for biometric matching;
a display configured to display an image of at least a portion of the subject'"'"'s face; and
a processor operably coupled to the display and configured to send a signal to the display so as to cause the display to render a first image of a first eye of the subject relative to a second image of a second eye of the subject such that a relative separation of the first eye and the second eye is modified for the subject and both the first image and the second image are located near or at a physical location of the sensor, the rendered first image of the first eye providing feedback to the subject regarding occlusion and/or foreshortening of the iris of the subject with respect to the sensor.

Abstract
The present disclosure is directed towards a compact, mobile apparatus for iris image acquisition, adapted to address effects of ocular dominance in the subject and to guide positioning of the subject'"'"'s iris for the image acquisition. The apparatus may include a sensor for acquiring an iris image from a subject. A compact mirror may be oriented relative to a dominant eye of the subject, and sized to present an image of a single iris to the subject when the apparatus is positioned at a suitable distance for image acquisition. The mirror may assist the subject in positioning the iris for iris image acquisition. The mirror may be positioned between the sensor and the iris during iris image acquisition, and transmit a portion of light reflected off the iris to the sensor.

11. A method for iris image acquisition and positioning of an iris of a subject for the image acquisition, the method comprising:
-
displaying, to the subject, a first image of a first eye of the subject relative to a second image of a second eye of the subject such that a relative separation of the first eye and the second eye is modified for the subject and both the first image and the second image are located near or at a location of a sensor, the displayed first image of the first eye of the subject providing feedback to the subject regarding occlusion and/or foreshortening of the iris of the subject with respect to the sensor; and acquiring, with the sensor, an image of the iris of the subject for biometric matching. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

21. An apparatus, comprising:
-
a sensor to acquire an image of at least a portion of a face of a subject in a field of view of the sensor; a display, operably coupled to the sensor, to display at least a portion of the image to the subject so as to provide feedback to the subject regarding occlusion and/or foreshortening of the iris of the subject with respect to the sensor; and a processor, operably coupled to the display, to electronically shift a first portion of the image with respect to a coordinate system of the display so that a rendering in the image of a first eye of the subject on the display is within a predetermined distance to the sensor, and to separately electronically shift a second portion of the image with respect to the coordinate system so that a rendering in the image of a second eye of the subject on the display is within the predetermined distance to the sensor. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23)

24. A method, comprising:
-
acquiring, by a sensor, an image of an iris of a subject; displaying, on a display, at least a portion of the image to the subject so as to provide feedback to the subject regarding occlusion and/or foreshortening of the iris of the subject with respect to the sensor; electronically shifting a first portion of the image with respect to a coordinate system of the display so that a rendering in the image of a first eye of the subject on the display is within a predetermined distance to the sensor; and separately electronically shifting a second portion of the image with respect to the coordinate system so that a rendering in the image of a second eye of the subject on the display is within the predetermined distance to the sensor. - View Dependent Claims (25)
