Application: Optical expression detection (Patent ID: US20240105169A1)
The patent filed by Raytheon Technologies Corp. describes a biometric authentication system using headwear with biosensors to sample muscle activity and authenticate users based on characteristic muscle activity stored in a data set. The system includes sensors to detect facial muscle activity, a processor to analyze the data captured by the sensors, and a weighting mechanism based on the level of muscle activity to determine the activity of facial muscles. The system can infer facial expressions based on the determined muscle activity and includes features such as optical flow sensors, EMG sensors, proximity sensors, and motion sensors to enhance the accuracy of the authentication process.
The system's processor processes time-varying data captured by sensors to determine facial muscle activity, with different weights assigned to data from different sensors based on the level of muscle activity. The system can detect activation and degree of activation of facial muscles, infer facial expressions, and filter data based on motion sensor outputs to improve accuracy. The wearable apparatus includes optical flow sensors, EMG sensors, proximity sensors, and motion sensors, with the processor combining data from these sensors to authenticate users based on characteristic muscle activity stored in a data set.
