In this study, a new facial recognition system was developed using thin-film solar cells as sensors. By precisely controlling changes in LED light intensity, the accuracy of facial recognition can be improved.
In this study, we developed a new facial recognition system using thin-film solar cells as sensors. When the face of a user is illuminated by LED lights on the left and right sides of the system and the reflected light enters the cells at the corresponding positions, differences in facial skin colors and 3D contours lead to different output voltages and currents of the thin-film solar cells. This is the basis of facial feature identification. We found that the accuracy of thin-film-solar-cell-based facial recognition can be improved by precisely controlling changes in LED light intensity. The facial features of six different users were successfully distinguished by this method, thus verifying that thin-film solar cells can be used for green power generation, as well as for facial recognition.
