Resolution isn't that important for Iris recognition (labview can achieve sub-pixel accuracy and the relative proportions of the eye are quite large). Focus and noise is more of a consideration. Therefore it is important you don't buy a webcam with a fixed focus (mobile phones have auto-focus which makes them extremely useful, webcams don't tend to)

 

You've probably seen the simple ones with the annulus (Find Circles) that do some distance measurements (Caliper), but you can achieve better than that with LabVIEW and detect the number and sizes of "dark spots" (Particle Analysis Report) and changes in color, shading and discontinuities (ROI Profile).

Thanks for information. There are webcams with auto focus like logitech c510 and c525. Do you think its better to buy these? My friend has a canon 1100 DSLR, is it possible to integrate and use it for my project?

Distance from camera can be upto couple of meters(not long range). Do you think 8 mega pixel will be better than 5MP for this purpose? i.e. Whether Logitech HD c310 or Logitech HD c510 be suitable?

Thanks for the reply. Yes I need lots of reading to do. My project is to detect multiple person at a time, just to display name of the person from database(if present) and to take log of them.

I'm thinking of buying this : http://www.flipkart.com/logitech-c310-webcam/p/itmczzccgktpvkjy?pid=ACCCZZC9ZGAH97QE&ref=12e60b4d-a3d9-4261-ad2a-09f48d3230c3&srno=t_8&otracker=from-search&query=webcam

I'm doing this on Labview, Imaq vision assistant..........

Hi I'm new to this forum and to Labview. I'm doing my Engineering project on Iris using Labview. I know it's becoming very popular these days and it has implemented in mobile phones too.

Can anyone suggest me what camera to use for this? I'm thinking of using a High def. webcam for doing this project. It would be great if someone enlightens me on this, whether it is possible to do with webcams..If so plz suggest me one.

Regards
