Abstract

A system for examining a passer having an ID card including a photograph and key data for searching registered data of the passer. This system has a data base storing registered data including a video image of the registered ID card owner, a video camera for capturing the passer's figure and a scanner for scanning the photograph of the ID card. The system searches corresponding data, including the video image data, in the data base, using the key data, and displays the found image, passer's image and the scanned photograph image in a display for comparison by an examiner. The system can be combined with a controllable gate system which the examiner can operate based on the results of the examination.
