Claim:
1. A system including iris recognition functionality, comprising: sensing circuitry to generate sensor data based on sensing characteristics of at least one eye when illuminated by infrared emissions; and processing circuitry to: wherein: the sensor data comprises at least one image of the at least one eye illuminated by the uniform or pulsed infrared emissions; in performing the at least one liveness test the processing circuitry is to determine if a light reflection generated by the uniform or pulsed infrared emissions appears in the at least one image, and is to determine if: the light reflection appearing in the at least one image is centered with at least one of an eye center or iris center appearing in the at least one image; or the light reflection appearing in the at least one image synchronized with at least one of an eye center or iris center appearing in the at least one image.
