Abstract This thesis presents the design, implementation and anlaysis of a dual biometric system. The system's primary functions were the authentication and verification of a person, based on their unique biometric profile. The biometric methods selected were facial recognition and hand gesture recognition, both implemented as separate systems and then combined, to form the dual system. Futhermore, the systems were created with the utilization of inexpensive and readily available hardware in order...
