Based on the “consensual reflex,” we developed a device for the acquisition of iris images, as shown in Fig. 1. This device performs different and independent tasks on each eye. The right eye receives visible light stimuli (white light) at computer-controlled specific time intervals, while the left eye image is captured and digitized into a video sequence under NIR illumination. The two sides of the device related to the left and right eyes are isolated from each other. The video sequence obtained under NIR illumination is synchronized with the “visible light” pulses (a white light LED was employed) applied to the other eye.
