Abstract:
An estimate of distance between a user and a camera on a device is used to determine an illumination pattern density used for speckle pattern illumination of the user in subsequent images. The distance may be estimated using an image captured when the user is illuminated with flood infrared illumination. Either a sparse speckle (dot) pattern illumination pattern or a dense speckle pattern illumination pattern is used depending on the distance between the user's face and the camera.

Claim (Index 30):
The method of  claim 21 , further comprising:\n capturing an additional image using the camera, wherein the additional image comprises an image of the user captured while illuminating with flood infrared illumination from the first illuminator; determining a second distance between the user and the camera by assessing two-dimensional information in the additional image; illuminating the user with patterned illumination having the first pattern density from the second illuminator in response to the second distance being less than the threshold distance; and illuminating the user with patterned illumination having the second pattern density from the second illuminator in response to the second distance being greater than the threshold distance.
