Before Getting Started
Firstly, we recommend using the Demo created by Verifik to appreciate both the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) services and the Life Detection services.
To make use of Verifik's Life Detection services, the following is required:
- Have an account generated on Verifik, This is necessary as the individual Access Token for the account is required for the APIs to function correctly.
- The images used in various processes are only accepted in Base64 format. This format converts an image into a readable format for any system, in this case, Verifik's APIs.
Terminology
Here, some terms used in the explanation of Life Detection services will be listed:
- FaceHash. Image stored in the database.
- FaceScan. Image captured during live face scanning.
- 1:1. Comparison of FaceScan image with FaceHash image.
- 1:N. Search for live-captured image (FaceScan) within the database (BD) with a min_score of > 70%.
- ID:FaceScan. Comparison of ID photo to Face Scan.
