Using the infrared camera
The infrared camera provides a personal and secure way for you to sign in to your computer with face
authentication. After setting the infrared camera for face authentication, you can unlock your computer by
scanning your face instead of using a password.
The infrared camera has the following components:
1 3 Infrared light-emitting diode (LED)
The infrared LED emits infrared light. Normally the infrared light is invisible to the naked eyes.
2 Infrared camera lens
The infrared camera lens is used for creating the facial image of a user.
4 Camera indicator
When the camera indicator is on, the infrared camera is in the recognition mode.
To set the infrared camera for face authentication, do the following:
1. Open the Start menu and click Settings ➙ Accounts ➙ Sign-in options.
2. Scroll down to the Password section and click Add to create a password.
3. Follow the instructions on the screen to create a Personal Identification Number (PIN).
4. Locate the Windows Hello section and click Set up under Face Recognition. Then click Get Started.
5. Enter the PIN you have set earlier. The camera preview starts.
6. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the setup.
7. Click Improve Recognition to improve the image so that Windows Hello can recognize you in different
light conditions or when your appearance changes.
To use the infrared camera to unlock your computer, do the following:
1. On the Windows lock screen, select the smiling face icon from the sign-in options.
2. Follow the instructions on the screen and ensure that you are centered and looking directly at the
camera. When the program recognizes your face, it automatically unlocks the screen and signs you in to
the Windows operating system.
