Systems and methods for using occluded 3D objects for mixed reality captcha

Systems and methods for generating a CAPTCHA challenge in a virtual environment are disclosed. The methods display a spatially anchored virtual 3D object in a virtual environment where certain features of the 3D object are hidden or occluded. The methods provide general, specific, or no instructions to a user for manipulating the displayed 3D virtual object. Upon determining that the manipulations performed follow the instructions, the occluded feature is revealed. Varying degrees of CAPTCHA challenges are provided that include moving real life objects, leveraging user background in generating customized CAPTCHA challenges, and camouflaging the virtual objects to make solving the CAPTCHA more challenging. The methods query the user to provide an input that reflects the revealed occluded feature, and, if the response to the query meets the predetermined response, access to the secured data requested in granted.

Gesture-Driven CAPTCHA System for Touchless User Verification

A system and method are disclosed for touchless, gesture-based form validation using real-time input from a standard camera. Spatial hand gestures are interpreted as mouse-like actions—such as drag, click, scroll, and hold—to complete form tasks without physical input. The system includes a vision-based input module, an AI-powered gesture recognition engine using landmark extraction, an interaction handler that maps gestures to DOM-compliant events, and a validation controller that confirms field focus, checkbox toggling, and submission. A visual feedback renderer provides real-time cues indicating gesture success, failure, or activity. Navigation buttons enable directional control and element repositioning. The method supports secure CAPTCHA-style workflows via randomized tasks and gesture thresholds, executing natively in browsers using WebAssembly or TensorFlow.js. Applications include bot prevention, accessible interaction, and secure, device-free input for web and mobile environments.

Validating live humans and verifying engagement activity in virtual settings

The present disclosure relates generally to computer-implemented systems and techniques for leveraging a virtual decentralized database to enable user identity authentication and verification of user activity and associated behaviors on open internet and public web-based and native applications. Techniques are disclosed for user identification profile onboarding using biometrics, frictionless CAPTCHA (Completely Automatic Public Turing Tests To Tell Humans And Computers Apart) processes, passive data capture of physiological and behaviors using device sensors, and cryptographic methods of storing user engagement activity as immutable data files for secure distribution on a decentralized virtual private network. Such technologies operate to establish a high confidence level for user authenticity, communication origin, engagement outcome transparency and clarity of intent for users active on social, commercial, e-commerce and information sharing platforms. More specifically, an unobtrusive passive data capture method of authentication and verification on a secure VPN supports the organic, spontaneous and original experience audiences desire while simultaneously eliminating opportunities for unscrupulous actors to exploit open internet exchanges by inserting fraudulent user accounts, automated bots and other measures that mimic or impersonate live humans, which ultimately undermines user confidence in data safety and erodes mutual trust between people, companies and institutions.

A smart CAPTCHA method

This invention discloses an intelligent CAPTCHA method. Its key feature is that when a webpage is opened, the SDK begins collecting browser parameters, mouse and keyboard events, and sends them to the server. By collecting and judging the user's browser parameters and behaviors, the results are fed back to the SDK. A prediction model is constructed and trained within an AI prediction model to assist in the human-machine verification of the CAPTCHA service. The prediction model comprehensively analyzes parameters such as the trajectory, direction, and speed of the user dragging the CAPTCHA slider to predict whether it is a human operation. This achieves accurate and efficient judgment of human-machine operation without the user's awareness, saving time and operational costs for normal users, and minimizing the impact on normal users by optimizing parameters.
