Abstract

In one embodiment, a method includes an intelligent communication device detecting that a person is visible to a camera of the device, determining a first biometric characteristic of the person discernable by the device, associating the first biometric characteristic with a user identifier unique to the person, determining, while the person is identifiable based on the first biometric characteristic, a second biometric characteristic of the person discernable by the device, and associating the second biometric characteristic with the user identifier. The method also includes the device determining that a detected person has a detected biometric characteristic, determining that the detected person is associated with the user identifier by matching the detected biometric characteristic to the first biometric characteristic or the second biometric characteristic, and applying, while the detected person is identifiable based on the detected biometric characteristic, a user-specific customization associated with the user identifier.
