Abstract

Recently, the use of far IR spectral region (FIR), especially in range 8-13 micrometers , is widely discussed. One of the main areas of applications is monitoring of human body for health care. On the other hand, the health care and banking industries are faced with fraud. There is a need to elaborate the systems that can be used not only for health diagnosis, but also for unique identification of human bodies. This paper discusses the possibility of exploiting of the registration of FIR images and their computer aided processing for facial recognition systems.
