Biometric Authentication System Using Two-Stage Verification
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current biometric authentication systems for payment processing incur high installation costs due to the need for multiple authentication devices and risk false authentication, which can be costly and inaccurate.
Innovation Solution
A processing execution apparatus and user terminal system that performs a first biometric authentication outside the payment terminal range, with certification information being acquired and used to initiate a second biometric authentication upon entry, reducing the need for additional devices and enhancing authentication accuracy.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If two-factor authentication using multiple authentication methods is performed immediately before payment processing, then the likelihood of false authentication is reduced, but installation costs increase due to the need for additional certification devices
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs the first biometric authentication in advance when the user enters the store, before the payment process. The certification information obtained from this preliminary authentication is stored and later used during payment processing. This allows the system to reduce false authentication risks through two-factor authentication without requiring additional certification devices at the payment terminal, as the first authentication factor is obtained beforehand.
2Measurement precision
If a terminal for detecting proximity ID is installed at the entrance of the store, then user identification is improved, but installation costs increase
Solution Approach 1:
The user terminal (smartphone or similar device) that the user already possesses is utilized to perform the first biometric authentication and store certification information. Instead of installing a separate terminal at the store entrance to detect proximity ID, the system leverages the user's own device capabilities (camera, processor, storage) to accomplish identification and authentication functions, thereby avoiding additional installation costs while maintaining identification accuracy.

AI summary
A processing execution apparatus includes: an acquisition unit that acquires certification information indicating that a first biometric authentication has succeeded from a user terminal possessed by a user after the user moves into a first range of a location where the processing execution apparatus is installed, the first biometric authentication being performed based on a first captured image in which the user is imaged by the user terminal outside the first range; an authentication control unit that initiates a control of a second biometric authentication for the user when the certification information is acquired; and an execution unit that executes predetermined processing when the second biometric authentication has succeeded.
