First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for acquiring biometric imagery in a large capture volume, the method comprising:
- rotating a first reflective device about a first rotational axis, the first reflective device comprising at least a first and a second reflective regions, the first reflective region at least partially asymmetric with respect to the second reflective region about the first rotational axis, andacquiring, by a sensor, biometric imagery reflected off the first reflective device as the reflective device is rotated about the first rotational axis.

Abstract
A system and method for obtaining biometric imagery such as iris imagery from large capture volumes is disclosed wherein a substantially rotationally symmetric mirror such as a cone or sphere is rotated at a constant velocity about a central axis.
