Abstract

Various applications using a camera system have been developed and deployed commercially to improve our daily life. The performance of camera system are mainly dependent on image quality and illumination conditions. Multiband camera has been developed to provide a wealth of information for image acquisition. In this paper, we developed an application using a multiband camera, which is available in four bands consisting of a near infrared and three color bands. We presented a face detection using multiband camera system to utilize two different images i.e. color image extracted from Bayer filter and near infrared images. The experimental results showed the effectiveness of the proposed system.
