Using the TOSHIBA Face Recognition
TOSHIBA Face Recognition uses a face verification library to verify the
face data of users when they log on to Windows. This way the user can
avoid having to enter a password, which makes the logon process easier.

How to register the Face Recognition Data
Take a picture for facial verification purposes, and register the data needed
when you log on. To register the data needed when you log on, follow the
steps as described below:
1. Click Start  All Programs  TOSHIBA  Utilities  Face Recognition.
■ The Registration screen is displayed for a logged-on user whose
face has not been registered.
■ The Management screen is displayed for a logged-on user whose
face has already been registered.
■ TOSHIBA Face Recognition does not guarantee the correct
identification of a user. Changes to the likeness of a registrant, such as
hair style changes, wearing a cap, or wearing glasses may effect the
recognition rates.
■ TOSHIBA Face Recognition may incorrectly recognize faces that are
similar to a registrant.
■ For high security purposes, TOSHIBA Face Recognition is not a
suitable substitute for Windows passwords. When security is a high
priority, use your established Windows passwords to log on.
■ Bright background light and/or shadows may prevent a registrant from
being recognized correctly. In that case, log on using your Windows
password. If recognition of a registrant fails repeatedly, refer to your
computer documentation to learn ways to improve recognition
performance.
■ TOSHIBA Face Recognition records face data in a log when face
recognition fails. When transferring ownership or disposing of your
computer, please uninstall the application or delete all the logs created
by the application. For details on how to do this, see help file.
