Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to biometric authentication, e.g., facial recognition. In some embodiments, a device is configured to verify that image data from a camera unit exhibits a pseudo-random sequence of image capture modes and/or a probing pattern of illumination points (e.g., from lasers in a depth capture mode) before authenticating a user based on recognizing a face in the image data. In some embodiments, a secure circuit may control verification of the sequence and/or the probing pattern. In some embodiments, the secure circuit may verify frame numbers, signatures, and/or nonce values for captured image information. In some embodiments, a device may implement one or more lockout procedures in response to biometric authentication failures. The disclosed techniques may reduce or eliminate the effectiveness of spoofing and/or replay attacks, in some embodiments.

Abstract: Imaging apparatus (22) includes a radiation source (40), which emits pulsed beams (42) of optical radiation toward a target scene (24). An array (52) of sensing elements outputs signals indicative of respective times of incidence of photons on the sensing elements. Objective optics (54) form a first image of the target scene on the array of sensing elements. An image sensor (64) captures a second image of the target scene. Processing and control circuitry (56, 58) is configured to process the second image so as to detect a relative motion between at least one object in the target scene and the apparatus, and which is configured to construct, responsively to the signals from the array, histograms of the times of incidence of the photons on the sensing elements and to adjust the histograms responsively to the detected relative motion, and to generate a depth map of the target scene based on the adjusted histograms.
