Appl. No.:

10/293647

Inventors:

James Dombrowski - Santa Ana CA, US

International Classification:

G06K009/00

US Classification:

382/115000

Abstract:

A system and method for authenticating an identification device (such as an identification card or a credit card) comprising stored biometric identification information and a person using the identification device are disclosed. Biometric data is read from stored biometric identification information on the identification device. A representation of biometric data of the person using the identification device is obtained. The representation of the biometric data obtained from the person using the identification device is formatted into a format that can be used to generate a template. The template is generated from the formatted data. The generated template is compared to a template included in the stored biometric identification information stored on the identification device to determine if the person using the identification device is the identification device owner. If the generated template matches the template on the identification device, authentication data stored on the identification device is validated to determine if the identification device is valid identification device.

Abstract:

A system and method for storing human biometric data about a person are disclosed. A digital data representation of the biometric data is obtained. The human biometric data is formatted in a format that can be used to generate at least one template. For example, the pixels of the video image are digitized. At least one template is generated from the formatted data. Authentication data is generated. The authentication data is encrypted. Stored biometric identification information is generated using the encrypted authentication data and the data of at least one template. The stored biometric identification information is stored on an identification device, e.g., an identification card or a credit card.
