人臉辨識於IC健保卡上的應用

Abstract

健保IC卡已全面實施，對於人民的醫療需求帶來莫大的幫助。然而這一張關係到每個人隱私與重要醫療資訊的卡片儼然成為盜用的目標，因此，本研究提出一防盜的機制，結合人臉辨識與IC健保卡系統，當民眾到醫院去掛號，利用讀卡機讀取IC健保卡時，讀卡機上裝設的CCD即時將民眾的人臉影像拍下，經由偵測的方式將人臉特徵抓取出來，同時系統讀取卡片上的資料，根據卡片上存放人臉的特徵資料與即時拍攝的影像的特徵資料作比對，比對出確定無誤即能證明此張IC健保卡為本人所有而非別人所盜用。由於每個人都有一張自己獨特的臉孔，是別人無法效仿的，利用此一特性有效杜絕被盜用及仿冒的風險。

IC cards for health insurance has been taken effect throughout Taiwan. This is medically beneficial to the people. However, this card is closely related to everyone’s privacy and to their personal important medical data, has been the target of piracy. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to offer a mechanism to prevent the occurrence of piracy by combining human face recognition method into the system for IC health insurance cards. When people register at hospital, their IC card is readed by card reader. At the same time ,the CCD equipped on the card reader will take pictures of their faces. From the features of the human face stored on the IC card, we can compare these with the instantaneous picture to make sure that the user of this IC card is the correct person .As everyone has his unique face features ,it is very difficult to imitate.We can use this characteristic to eliminate the risk of being counterfeited.
