Low cost multimodal facial recognition via kinect sensors

This paper presents a novel low cost 3D facial recognition using gaming sensors such as Kinect™. The paper describes the hardware, calibration and infrared noise and pattern interference challenges of integrating multiple Kinect sensors. The preliminary results show a promising trend for low cost solutions that can be populated in crowded facilities such as malls and airports.
