TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure generally relates to the field of computer technologies, and in particular, to image acquisition methods, apparatuses, systems and electronic devices.

TECHNICAL BACKGROUND

With the continuous development of pattern recognition, artificial intelligence and other technologies, biometric feature recognition technologies are attracting increasingly more attention. At present, biometric feature recognition mainly includes fingerprint recognition, face recognition, speech recognition, palmprint recognition, eye print recognition, iris recognition, facial expression recognition, and so on.

In order to improve the accuracy of biometric recognition, some technical personnel and research institutions are considering combining face recognition with eye recognition (such as eye print recognition and iris recognition). The proposed techniques seek to address the problem of inaccurate face recognition for similar faces, such as in cases of identical twins. Problems exist with such proposals. For example, ordinary RGB cameras can generally meet the acquisition requirements for face recognition. However, due to issues such as limited resolutions, limited Depth of Field (DoF), and limited Field of View (FoV), ordinary RGB cameras cannot achieve accurate acquisition of the eye region. Accordingly, there is a need for optimized image acquisition solutions to improve the accuracy of face recognition.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Exemplary embodiments are described in detail in the following and are illustrated in the drawings. It is appreciated that the embodiments described below and illustrated in the drawings are exemplary only. They do not constitute any limitations on the scope of the present disclosure.

In order to solve the problem that existing face image acquisition methods are not optimized enough, an image acquisition method is provided in the embodiments of this specification. The image acquisition method provided in the embodiments may be executed by, but not limited to, at least one of user terminals that are configured to perform the method provided in the embodiments such as mobile phones, tablet computers, and wearable devices. Or, the method may also be executed by a client terminal that can perform the method.

In the following description, as an example, the method is described as being performed by a mobile terminal. It should be appreciated that the method being performed by a mobile terminal is only exemplary. In other embodiments, the method may be performed by other devices.

FIG. 1 is a flow chart of an image acquisition method 100 according to an embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the image acquisition method 100 includes the following steps 110-130.

In step 110, an initial face image of a user is acquired by a first image acquisition apparatus.

As noted in the Technical Background, existing ordinary RGB cameras for face image acquisition can generally meet the acquisition requirements for face recognition. However, for acquisition of eye prints in an eye region, ordinary RGB cameras may have the following problems. Ordinary RGB cameras have limited resolutions, which may not deliver high resolution of the acquired eye prints in the eye region. Further, ordinary RGB cameras have a limited DoF, which may not ensure accurate focusing on the eye region. In addition, ordinary RGB cameras have a limited FoV, which makes it difficult to maintain a wide FoV while capturing the eye prints in the eye region and difficult to acquire eye prints of users of different heights.

Some existing iris imaging techniques perform iris acquisition using a single camera. Imaging DoF and FoV of the single camera used are both limited. Image acquisition of the eye region requires the user to be in a specific position, which affects user experience. In addition, iris acquisition also requires adding an infrared light supplementing component and an infrared filter to an imaging system, which increases complexity of the imaging system.

In order to address the above problems, according to the image acquisition methods provided in an embodiment of this specification, a first image acquisition apparatus is configured to acquire an initial face image of a user and a second image acquisition apparatus is configured to acquire an eye print image of the user. That way, acquisition of a face image and an eye image can be performed at the same time. The first image acquisition apparatus can acquire the initial face image of the user in different manners. In some embodiments, the initial face image may be acquired based on a face video stream of the user acquired by the first image acquisition apparatus in real time.

In step 120, a second image acquisition apparatus is controlled to acquire an eye print image of the user according to a target acquisition parameter, the target acquisition parameter being determined based on the initial face image.

As noted above, with the existing techniques, user experience is affected as the user may need to be in a specific position in order to perform image acquisition of the eye region. According to some embodiments of this specification, a second image acquisition apparatus is controlled to acquire an eye print image of the user according to a target acquisition parameter. The target acquisition parameter of the second image acquisition apparatus can be determined based on the initial face image. Then the second image acquisition apparatus is controlled to acquire the eye print image of the user based on the target acquisition parameter. The target acquisition parameter can include parameter information such as an acquisition angle and an acquisition height of the second image acquisition apparatus. That way, it is no longer needed for the user to adjust his/her own height or angle multiple times to cooperate with the second image acquisition apparatus for acquiring an eye print image. User experience can therefore be improved.

Different users may have different heights and different pupillary distances. In order to ensure that the second image acquisition apparatus can acquire a clear eye print image, the determining a target acquisition parameter of the second image acquisition apparatus based on the initial face image can include the following procedures. First, spatial location information of the user's eye region can be determined based on the initial face image of the user. For example, key points can be located based on the initial face image of the user to facilitate determining the spatial location information of the user's eye region. A target acquisition parameter of the second image acquisition apparatus can be determined based on the spatial location information of the user's eye region. For example, a target acquisition parameter can be an optimal acquisition angle or acquisition height. The spatial location information of the user's eye region can include pupil center location information of the user's eyes.

In an embodiment, in order to ensure that the second image acquisition apparatus can acquire a sufficiently clear eye print image, the controlling a second image acquisition apparatus to acquire an eye print image of the user according to a target acquisition parameter may include the following procedures. First, the second image acquisition apparatus can be controlled to acquire an eye region image of the user according to the target acquisition parameter. The eye region image of the user can then be segmented by using a full convolutional depth neural network, to acquire an eye print image of which the sharpness meets a preset condition. As the eye region image of the user is segmented by the full convolutional depth neural network, the quality of the acquired eye print image can be quickly evaluated. That way, it can help the second image acquisition apparatus to focus, and to obtain a sufficiently clear eye print image.

In some embodiments, the first image acquisition apparatus is configured to acquire a face image of the user, the second image acquisition apparatus is configured to acquire an eye print image of the user. The first image acquisition apparatus and the second image acquisition apparatus can have different FoV requirements. In order to meet the different acquisition requirements, a camera with a large FoV may be selected for the first image acquisition apparatus, and a camera with a small FoV may be selected for the second image acquisition apparatus. That is, the FoV of the first image acquisition apparatus can be greater than that of the second image acquisition apparatus. For example, the FoV of the first image acquisition apparatus can be greater than or equal to 45°*100°; and the FoV of the second image acquisition apparatus can be greater than or equal to 50 mm*140 mm.

In the forgoing example, other parameters of the first image acquisition apparatus and the second image acquisition apparatus can be as follows: a spatial resolution of the first image acquisition apparatus can be greater than or equal to 2 mm, an imaging distance range can be 500 mm to 1000 mm, and an image frame rate can be greater than or equal to 15 fps. A spatial resolution of the second image acquisition apparatus can be no less than 3-5 line pairs/mm.

As gimbals provide relatively high accuracy and are easy to control, the second image acquisition apparatus can be controlled by a gimbal, e.g., a steering gimbal, a servo gimbal, etc., to adjust acquisition parameters such as an image acquisition angle, according to an embodiment. The step of controlling a second image acquisition apparatus to acquire an eye print image of the user according to a target acquisition parameter may include: controlling the second image acquisition apparatus by using a gimbal to acquire the eye print image of the user according to the target acquisition parameter.

In an embodiment, a lens of the second image acquisition apparatus may be an optical zoom lens or a prime lens. If the lens of the second image acquisition apparatus is an optical zoom lens, the optical zoom lens can ensure a consistent acquisition resolution for acquisition of the eye print image at different distances. If the lens of the second image acquisition apparatus is a prime lens, digital zoom can be used to facilitate adjustment of a lens focal length to obtain a clear eye print image. Using digital zoom with the prime lens may reduce the cost of the whole image acquisition system, but the sharpness of the eye print image acquired may be affected compared with that of the eye print image acquired by the optical zoom lens. In addition, in order to ensure that the second image acquisition apparatus can acquire an eye print image of which the sharpness meets a preset condition, no matter which lens is used by the second image acquisition apparatus, the DoF of the lens can be greater than or equal to 2 cm.

FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating an image acquisition method applied to an actual scenario 200 according to one embodiment. The diagram in FIG. 2 illustrates two aspects of the application scenario 200: a software algorithm 210 and an imaging system 220. The imaging system 220 includes a camera 221, which is a face acquisition camera with a large FoV; a camera 222, which is an eye print acquisition camera with a small FoV; and a gimbal 223, e.g., a steering gimbal, a servo gimbal, etc., configured to control an acquisition parameter of the camera 222. It is appreciated that the camera 221 can serve as the first image acquisition apparatus described above, and the camera 222 can serve as the second image acquisition apparatus described above and can be a camera using an optical zoom lens.

The software algorithm 210 mainly includes face detection algorithm(s), eye detection algorithm(s), and control algorithm(s), which can be stored in a control chip 211 or stored in an upper computer 212.

As an example, the process of acquiring an initial face image and an eye print image of a user in the scenario illustrated in FIG. 2 can include: acquiring a face video stream of the user by the camera 221; acquiring the face video stream by the control chip 211 or the upper computer 212; acquiring an initial face image by face detection, acquiring pupil center location information of two eyes of the user by key point locating and eye detection, and determining a target acquisition parameter of the camera 222 based on the location information; sending the target acquisition parameter to the gimbal 223; and controlling the camera 222, by the gimbal 223 after the target acquisition parameter is received, to acquire the eye print image of the user according to the target acquisition parameter.

Referring back to FIG. 1, in step 130, the initial face image and the eye print image are synthesized into a target face image of the user.

After the initial face image of the user is acquired by the first image acquisition apparatus and the eye print image of the user is acquired by the second image acquisition apparatus respectively, the initial face image and the eye print image can be synthesized into a target face image of the user. When performing identity verification for the user, identity verification can be carried out using a combination of the face image and the eye print image. Eye print image recognition can be used to distinguish people's identity according to arrangements of blood vessels in the white area of the human eye. Every person has a unique eye print. Even twins with a high facial similarity have different arrangements of blood vessels in their eye prints. Therefore, identity verification carried out using a combination of the face image and the eye print image can be more accurate.

According to the above-described embodiments, an initial face image of the user can be acquired by a first image acquisition apparatus, based on which a target acquisition parameter can be determined. Then a second image acquisition apparatus can be controlled to acquire an eye print image of the user according to a target acquisition parameter. The initial face image and the eye print image can be synthesized into a target face image of the user. As such, the acquired face image includes the face image of the user and an eye region image of the user, which is the eye print image of the user. On one hand, the accuracy of face recognition can be improved. On the other hand, the second image acquisition apparatus can also be controlled to acquire the eye print image of the user based on the initial face image of the user, thus avoiding the situation that the user needs to adjust his/her own acquisition angle. User experience can therefore be improved.
