METHOD FOR DISTINGUISHING A REAL THREE-DIMENSIONAL OBJECT FROM A TWO-DIMENSIONAL SPOOF OF THE REAL OBJECT
A method for distinguishing a real three-dimensional object, like a finger of a hand, from a two- dimensional spoof of the real object, the method comprising: obtaining, by an optical sensor of a mobile device, an image, wherein the image contains either the spoof or the real object; providing the image to a neural network; processing the image by the neural network; wherein processing comprises calculating at least one of: a distance map representative of the distance of a plurality of pixels to the optical sensor, the pixels constituting at least a portion of the object within the image; a reflection pattern representative of light reflection associated with a plurality of pixels constituting at least a portion of the object within the image; and wherein processing further comprises comparing at least one of the calculated distance map or the calculated reflection pattern with a learned distance map or a learned reflection pattern, thereby determining, based on an outcome of the comparison, that the image contains either the spoof or the real object.

METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING AN OBJECT WITHIN AN IMAGE AND MOBILE DEVICE FOR EXECUTING THE METHOD
A method for identifying a user using an image of an object of the user that has a biometric characteristic of the user, like a fingerprint or a set of fingerprints of fingertips, the method comprising: obtaining, by an optical sensor of a mobile device, the image of the object; providing the image to a neural network; processing the image by the neural network, thereby identifying both, the position of the object and the object in the image; extracting, from the identified object, the biometric characteristic; storing the biometric characteristic in a storage device and/or providing at least the biometric characteristic as input to an identification means, comprising processing the input in order to determine whether the biometric characteristic identifies the user.
