We demonstrate a complete and automatic system to perform face authentication by analysis of 3D facial shape. In this live demonstration of the system, the subject is first enrolled, and given a unique identifier. Subsequently, the user's identity is verified by providing the reference identifier. Our approach is to be contrasted with traditional face recognition methods, which compare pictures of faces. We also analyzed the image quality requirements in order to generate a good quality 3D reconstruction from stereo.
