Abstract

An iris or other object detection method and apparatus are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises sending image data to a display of a device that is captured with a first camera of the device with an indication to guide a user to position a body part of the user with respect to the display while the image data is being sent to the display, providing feedback to the user to indicate to the user that the body part is in position so that an image of the body part can be captured by a second camera of the device, capturing an image of the body part with the second camera, and performing recognition on the body part using the image.
