Augmented Reality Data Decryption via Trusted Device Identifier
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional augmented reality display devices face challenges in ensuring timely and secure access to sensitive data, as they struggle to accurately determine authorized users and decrypt information in near-real-time.
Innovation Solution
A method implemented by a processor in communication with an augmented reality display device, which identifies users through biometric data, obtains access rights information, determines authorization, accesses decryption keys, and decrypts encrypted data for display, using techniques such as biometric scanning, voice recognition, and QR code scanning.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If conventional encryption methods are used to protect sensitive information, then security is improved, but the time required to decrypt and access the information increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by pre-establishing trusted device identifiers and encryption keys in secure storage before decryption is needed. When encrypted content is accessed, the system quickly verifies the device identifier against the stored trusted identifier and uses the pre-stored key for decryption, eliminating the need for time-consuming key exchange or complex authentication protocols during the actual decryption process.
2Reliability
If manual authorization processes are used to determine user access rights, then security is improved, but the complexity of the system increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements self-service authorization by automatically verifying device identifiers and managing encryption keys without requiring manual intervention. The augmented reality device itself performs the authorization check by comparing its identifier against the trusted device identifier stored in secure storage, and automatically retrieves and uses the corresponding encryption key, eliminating the need for manual authorization processes.
3Reliability
If biometric authentication is implemented for user identification, then security is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system uses the device identifier as an intermediary that represents the user's authorization status. Instead of directly implementing complex biometric authentication, the system verifies the device identifier against a trusted device identifier stored in secure storage. This intermediary approach allows the system to maintain security while avoiding the complexity of direct biometric processing, as the device identifier serves as a reliable proxy for user authentication.

AI summary
A method for performing data decryption upon data to be displayed on an augmented reality display device is provided. The method includes identifying a user of the augmented reality display device; obtaining access rights information that relates to the user; receiving a set of encrypted information; using the obtained access rights information to determine whether the user is authorized to access the encrypted information; when the user is so authorized, accessing a decryption key that is associated with the encrypted information; decrypting at least a portion of the encrypted information by using the decryption key; and displaying the decrypted portion of the encrypted information on the augmented reality display device.
