Abstract

Systems and methods for enrolling and authenticating a user in an authentication system via a camera of a computing device include capturing and storing biometric information from at least one first image and at least one second image of the user taken via the camera. Prior to use, the user answers personal questions and the answers are stored as stored answer data. Later, such as at a business, the questions are presented to the user and the user provides their personal answers via a computing device. The answers are processed and uploaded to an authentication server where a comparison occurs against the stored answer data. If a match does not occur, then the authentication/identity verification processes ends. If a match does occur, then the authentication process continues. The questions match may serve as a gate function for accessing authentication data stored in a blockchain.

Abstract

A method and system for establishing an association between a document and a person or verifying identity comprising capturing images of the person's face and processing the images to generate a face feature vector data. The face feature vector data cannot be reverse processed to generate the image of the person's face. The method also captures images of the graphic on the item and processes those images to extract graphic derived feature vector data that is stored inside the graphic code. The graphic extracted face feature vector data cannot be reverse processed to generate the image of the person's face. Then, the face derived feature vector data is compared to the graphic derived feature vector data to develop a similarity value. Then the similarity value is compared to a first threshold value to develop a validation indicator representing the likelihood that the graphic/item are associated with the person.

Abstract

Systems and methods for authenticating a user in an authentication system using a computing device configured to capture authentication biometric identity information. The authentication biometric identify information captured during an authentication session. The authentication biometric identify information may comprise or be derived from one or more images of the user being authenticated. The authentication biometric identify information is compared to root identify biometric information. The root identify biometric information is captured from a trusted source, such as trusted devices located at trusted locations, such as a government entity, financial institution, or business. Identity verification may occur by comparing the trusted root identify biometric information to the biometric identify information captured during an authentication session. Liveness determination may also occur to verify the user is a live person. Liveness determination may include comparing two images of the user such that the two images are captured at different distances from the user.

Abstract

A method and system for establishing an association between a document and a person or verifying identity comprising capturing images of the person's face and processing the images to generate a face feature vector data. The face feature vector data can not be reverse processed to generate the image of the person's face. The method also captures images of the graphic on the item and processes those images to extract graphic derived feature vector data that is stored inside the graphic code. The graphic extracted face feature vector data cannot be reverse processed to generate the image of the person's face. Then, the face derived feature vector data is compared to the graphic derived feature vector data to develop a similarity value. Then the similarity value is compared to a first threshold value to develop a validation indicator representing the likelihood that the graphic/item are associated with the person.

Abstract

Systems and methods for enrolling and authenticating a user in an authentication system via a camera of a computing device include capturing and storing biometric information from at least one first image and at least one second image of the user taken via the camera. Prior to use, the user answers personal questions and the answers are stored as stored answer data. Later, such as at a business, the questions are presented to the user and the user provides their personal answers via a computing device. The answers are processed and uploaded to an authentication server where a comparison occurs against the stored answer data. If a match does not occur, then the authentication/identity verification processes ends. If a match does occur, then the authentication process continues. The questions match may serve as a gate function for accessing authentication data stored in a blockchain.

Abstract

Systems and methods for authenticating a user in an authentication system using a computing device configured to capture authentication biometric identity information. The authentication biometric identify information captured during an authentication session. The authentication biometric identify information may comprise or be derived from one or more images of the user being authenticated. The authentication biometric identify information is compared to root identify biometric information. The root identify biometric information is captured from a trusted source, such as trusted devices located at trusted locations, such as a government entity, financial institution, or business. Identity verification may occur by comparing the trusted root identify biometric information to the biometric identify information captured during an authentication session. Liveness determination may also occur to verify the user is a live person. Liveness determination may include comparing two images of the user such that the two images are captured at different distances from the user.

Abstract

A system for remote identity verification including a computing device configured to capture a first image of the user a first distance and capture a second image at a second distance and then processing the images to create one or more facemaps. The facemaps are processed to verify that the images were captured from a live person. If the facemaps represents a live person, the facemaps and a user identifying code are sent to a trusted image server. The rusted image server configured to, using the user ID code, retrieve a trusted image from a database and generate a trusted image facemaps. Then, compare captured image facemaps to the trusted image facemaps. Responsive to a match between the captured image facemaps and the trusted image facemaps, send a message to the computing device, a third-party server, or both providing notice of the match.

Abstract

Systems and methods for authenticating a user in an authentication system using a computing device configured to capture authentication biometric identity information. The authentication biometric identify information captured during an authentication session. The authentication biometric identify information may comprise or be derived from one or more images of the user being authenticated. The authentication biometric identify information is compared to root identify biometric information. The root identify biometric information is captured from a trusted source, such as trusted devices located at trusted locations, such as a government entity, financial institution, or business. Identity verification may occur by comparing the trusted root identify biometric information to the biometric identify information captured during an authentication session. Liveness determination may also occur to verify the user is a live person. Liveness determination may include comparing two images of the user such that the two images are captured at different distances from the user.

Abstract

Systems and methods for enrolling and authenticating a user in an authentication system via a camera of a computing device include capturing and storing biometric information from at least one first image and at least one second image of the user taken via the camera. Prior to use, the user answers personal questions and the answers are stored as stored answer data. Later, such as at a business, the questions are presented to the user and the user provides their personal answers via a computing device. The answers are processed and uploaded to an authentication server where a comparison occurs against the stored answer data. If a match does not occur, then the authentication/identity verification processes ends. If a match does occur, then the authentication process continues. The questions match may serve as a gate function for accessing authentication data stored in a blockchain.

Abstract

Systems and methods for authenticating a user in an authentication system using a computing device configured to capture authentication biometric identity information. The authentication biometric identify information captured during an authentication session. The authentication biometric identify information may comprise or be derived from one or more images of the user being authenticated. The authentication biometric identify information is compared to root identify biometric information. The root identify biometric information is captured from a trusted source, such as trusted devices located at trusted locations, such as a government entity, financial institution, or business. Identity verification may occur by comparing the trusted root identify biometric information to the biometric identify information captured during an authentication session. Liveness determination may also occur to verify the user is a live person. Liveness determination may include comparing two images of the user such that the two images are captured at different distances from the user.

Abstract

Systems and methods for enrolling and authenticating a user in an authentication system via a user's camera of camera equipped mobile device include capturing and storing enrollment biometric information from at least one first image of the user taken via the camera of the mobile device, capturing authentication biometric information from at least one second image of the user, capturing, during imaging of the at least one second image, path parameters via at least one movement detecting sensor indicating an authentication movement of the mobile device, comparing the authentication biometric information to the stored enrollment biometric information, and comparing the authentication movement of the mobile device to an expected movement of the mobile device to determine whether the authentication movement sufficiently corresponds to the expected movement.
