Solution Overview

Problem

Existing methods fail to securely verify the identity of individuals producing observable material, such as written text or artwork, and those receiving information, which is crucial for ensuring the authenticity and security of communication and documentation processes.

Innovation Solution

A system comprising a computer database and processor that captures and compares identifying images of individuals during registration and authorship processes, using biometric data to verify the identity of authors and receivers through biologic and biodynamic identification techniques, enhancing communication security.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If biometric identification techniques are used to verify author identity, then reliability of identity verification is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveidentity verification reliabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by capturing and storing biometric data (fingerprints, facial features, etc.) and observable material (handwriting, typing patterns, artwork characteristics) during a registration phase before the actual verification is needed. This pre-captured data is then compared during verification, eliminating the need for complex real-time analysis and reducing the complexity of the verification device while maintaining high reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system creates copies of biometric identifiers and observable material characteristics, storing them in a database for later comparison. Instead of requiring complex real-time biometric analysis, the system captures and stores representative copies of the author's biometric data and work characteristics, then compares these copies against new submissions. This copying approach simplifies the verification device while ensuring reliable identity confirmation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

2Measurement precision

If multiple identifying features are captured and compared, then measurement precision of identity verification is improved, but loss of time in the verification process increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveidentity verification precisionVSAvoidverification time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary capture and organization of multiple identifying features (biometric data, observable material characteristics) during registration. By pre-processing and storing these features in an organized manner with associated metadata and comparison criteria, the system enables rapid retrieval and comparison during verification, reducing the time penalty that would otherwise result from analyzing multiple features.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The verification process is segmented into distinct stages: retrieval of stored identifying features, comparison of each feature type, and aggregation of comparison results. This segmentation allows the system to efficiently handle multiple identifying features by processing them in manageable units rather than as a monolithic complex analysis, thereby maintaining high measurement precision while minimizing verification time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

Apparatus for identifying a person who wishes to receive information, where identifying information for each of a plurality of registered individuals is stored in a database, calls for capturing images of an individual requesting information, and determining whether this individual is the same as one of the registered individuals. The stored identifying information includes images of a unique, observable biologic identifier on a body portion of each registered individual. The specificity of the identification process is enhanced by storing registered examples of altered biological information in the database, by allowing the information provider to induce an alteration in a biologic identifier of a requesting person at the time of the request, and by comparing the altered requesting person information to stored information. Further identification enhancement is obtained by rapidly altering the visual environment of the requesting person, and by providing the requested information to the retina of the requesting person.
