SYSTEM FOR BIOMETRIC IDENTIFICATION ENROLLMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18152403 titled 'SYSTEM FOR BIOMETRIC IDENTIFICATION ENROLLMENT
The abstract describes a process for enrolling users in a biometric identification system using general input devices like smartphones. Users input their identification data and capture their hand image for processing.
- First, users input their identification data and capture their hand image using a general input device.
- The first image data is processed to create a first representation of the user's hand.
- When the user presents their hand to a biometric input device, a second image is captured and processed to create a second representation.
- If the second representation matches the first representation, the enrollment process is completed by storing the second representation for future use.
Potential Applications: - Biometric security systems - Access control systems - Identity verification processes
Problems Solved: - Streamlining user enrollment in biometric systems - Enhancing security and accuracy of identification processes
Benefits: - Improved user experience in enrolling for biometric systems - Enhanced security measures for access control - Efficient and accurate identification processes
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhancing Biometric Security Systems with Streamlined User Enrollment" This technology can be utilized in various industries such as: - Banking and finance - Healthcare - Government agencies - Corporate offices
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology improve the user enrollment process for biometric systems? - This technology simplifies the enrollment process by using general input devices like smartphones, making it more accessible and user-friendly. 2. What are the potential security implications of using biometric identification systems in various industries? - Biometric identification systems offer enhanced security measures compared to traditional methods, reducing the risk of unauthorized access.
Original Abstract Submitted
User enrollment to a biometric identification system begins with a pre-enrollment process on selected general input devices (GID) such as smartphones. The user may enter identification data such as their name and use a camera of the GID to acquire first image data, such as of their hand. The first image data is processed to determine a first representation. Upon presentation of a hand at a biometric input device, second image data is acquired. The second image data is processed to determine a second representation. If the second representation is deemed to be associated with the first representation, the enrollment process may be completed by storing the second representation for subsequent use.
