This is the " future of laptop security " ???? hahahahahaha!!!!! I got a picture of my DOG as my "future laptop security". EVEN if it does work years from now, I just steal you pc take the hd out connect it to my 1tb hd pc and run my data recovery and pull everything off your hd!!!
I bought a lenovo laptop... awesome laptop, this program is a piece of shit. It tries to put some cyborg iron man eyepiece around your eye to try and make it look cool when it should be trying to recognize your face, because I have sat there for 5 minutes waiting for it to scan my face but it never does...terrible program
i just got my lenovo and wanted to set this up but when it was "scanning my face" for the program i sat there for about 5 minutes and it wasn't finished, wtf?
Just use the owners facebook profile picture you dont even have to be their friend xD
All you need to know is their name and have a mobile phone which can access facebook...
So basically its as simple as setting your full name as your password and putting a post it note on the laptop letting people know that your password is your full name...
@manuelmurante1984 you can turn on a setting that stops that but it makes you have to move your head from side to side and change your facial expression, thats if you are that fussy about the security
Tested this software. Yup, I can say how great the logic of the face recognition is. It can distinguish me from my twin! Veriface verified! Though, I agree that it does have a lot to do on the enhancement department.
My mother just bought me a new lenovo laptop two days ago it's 2011 model its very good and its good for watching videos on youtube and mine has 320 giga bytes in the hard drive and has 4gb memory ram and it also has the veriface scan but I don't know how to use it yet
Ok guys...the trick with this kind of security, is to never use it alone! Instead of using facial recognition as a standalone security, you should use it in conjunction with the fingerprint reader and the password! In this way, You dramatically enhance the security to a point, that it becomes possible for the machine, to make the mistake of thinking that you are not you! I personally use similar face recognition, fingerprint scanners, smart card readers, disc checks, and passwords.
too much variable... computer now still have the intelligence of a retarded cockaroach (michio kaku). i do not want to put faith in that yet. what if i have glasses? what if i had plastic surgury? what if i had an evil twin? like i said, junk.
if you turn the security setting to low then a pic will do fine, but on the higher settings you'd need a VERY carefully constructed image. It would take longer to make a high quality image than use a rescue tool to reset the password, so don't flame it too much.
@tubusandi@manuelmurante1984 dont talk about something unless you know what your talking about,if the owner is smart enough,he will activate an option called ''real time detection'' and when you enable it,you have to move your head and change your face expressions,like smiling and stuff,and then NO ONE CAN GET INTO UR ACCOUNT,unless its really you ;)
ive tried tht dumbass. it knows its a pic, the pic doesnt hav tht 3d look to it. the people who make this arnt dumb like u. how about u try crap and know what your talking about BEFORE u run your mouth :)
wow ur a total asshole. he was just suggesting an idea. people like you dont gain respect. btw a camera cannot tell the difference between a photo and a person because it has only one camera,which does not have depth perception. if you had only one eye, you could not tell the difference too. so yes a picture can be used to fool it. so you shut your pie hole and get your facts straight before you answer any question. also putting a smiley at the end of your reply makes you look like a 7 year old.
@manuelmurante1984 dont talk about something unless you know what your talking about,if the owner is smart enough,he will activate an option called ''real time detection'' and when you enable it,you have to move your head and change your face expressions,like smiling and stuff,and then NO ONE CAN GET INTO UR ACCOUNT,unless its really you ;)
@manuelmurante1984 It also has live detection, which the person u scamed did not have activated. In that case u need to move your head, and no picture will work ;)
@manuelmurante1984 the new version has Live detection which requires you to change your facial expression and tilt your head a bit, this kills the picture vulnerability
Oh ya, kicks ass... I hope nobody has a picture of you handy. I took a picture of myself on my cell phone and held it up to the camera... it let me in.
You can download it in lenovo's website. But however, it your PC is not lenovo, it will say something like your PC is not a product from lenovo, setup must be determined.
A matter of time and you will get an eye cancer. It is unsafe and not practical at all. By the way, if you show (someone's) face to your PC, the PC might throw a shoe at you loool
pictures have been proven not to work. unless you can show a video showing u folled it. there other videos on youtube showing people tryn to trick it with a picture and failed.
Veriface is AWFUL. It took an annoyingly long time to verify me, and log me in. Also, if it can't log you in, it will sometimes just log you in to a generic user account. Complete waste of time. (It's not the hard-drive, because the computer is a total virgin.)
The second I unchecked the face verification choice in the settings tab, the unsuccessful verifications, followed by generic log-ons, stopped.
I have VeriFace, it sometimes gets annoying when you tells you to sit up straight or "improve lighting" anyways, I only have version 1.0, I hope the rest are smarter.
What if I hold up a physical picture of the person who owns the computer at the camera assuming I stole it from someone I know and have their photo? Just a case scenario I would like to know.
not gonna lie, super cool, but... idk, kind of unnecessary. I mean, I WOULD like it, but I'm just a little paranoid- like... suppose it breaks (maybe my webcam breaks). Can you (or someone else) enter your password manually?
Because, I hate to admit it, but if that were the case, I'd be sold.
yes you can enter a password manually...so no problem about that! :) you can change the settings. the veriface just makes it easier for you to log in to your computer...when you make multiple accounts, you can enroll a different face for every account...and when you log in...it'll recognize which account it'll log you into -- pretty kewl!
yes you can enter a password manually... i have the lenovo y410...and i use the low security settings on veriface and it has the option of logging you in by your face or by manually by password :)
Ahh cool, I was just having flashbacks to ED-209...even though that was before my time xD
And lastly...after you're logged in, does it run in the background? 'cus I know vista itself is a system hog, and I'm gonna be doing some intense stuff on my laptop, so I don't want something else running in the background that doesn't need to be.
sowee for the double post ^ ^ ...yeah i guess it runs in the background...coz when you log off, or hibernate your p.c. you have the option of using veriface to log in. with the 2GB RAM installed... i really didn't notice any slowdowns in vista even with it running in the background :) you can install up to 4GB if you like when you've upgraded vista to SP1

Don't get excided, it's a piece of poop. I had to get rid of veriface from my G530 laptop. Things wrong with it.
A) Requires good lighting, won't work in the dark.
B) 1.3M PIXEL BisonChicony cam used on lenovo is a cheap POS. Often times when coming out of stand by or even starting up, it won't initialize.
C) It will unlock your laptop even if you are not trying to login and just walking by.
Good on paper, HORRIBLE in practise, take my word for it.

If you hold a picture up, it wouldn't register it.
It analyzes depth and structure of the face. A shave won't do anything to hinder your log-on, no will cutting your hair.
And if, 6 years down the line, it doesnt recognize your face, just reenroll another scan of your face. not difficult.
