IRIS FINDER - PROGRAM FOR RELIABLE IRIS LOCALISATION IN IMAGES TAKEN UNDER VISIBLE LIGHT

In this paper the Iris Finder program is presented for the first time. It is software for reliable iris localisation in images taken under visible light. The program is intended for researches on a system for automatic persons identification based on iris pattern. Performance of the software was verified on two databases. For the first database the program correctly localises iris for all 141 images. For the second database the iris was incorrectly localised only for 4 images from the entire database containing 1205 units.
