Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing digital identity documents are vulnerable to falsification through image manipulation and require complex generation processes, making them impractical for rapid verification by physical third parties.
Innovation Solution
A method for generating a digital identity document that includes extracting a photograph from a physical identity document, acquiring a mobile device photograph, and creating a hologram with multiple image layers tied to device parameters, ensuring authenticity through dynamic visual changes.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a digital identity document is created as a simple duplicate of a physical identity document, then it is easier to handle and access via mobile device display, but it becomes vulnerable to falsification through image manipulation techniques
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic image layers that change based on mobile device parameters such as orientation, acceleration, and position. The hologram comprises multiple image layers that are selectively displayed according to real-time device parameter values, making the digital identity document dynamic rather than static. This dynamic behavior prevents falsification because captured images do not represent the actual state of the document at verification time.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes physical parameters of the display by associating different image layers with different device parameter values. When device parameters change (orientation, acceleration, position), different image layers are displayed, creating a parameter-dependent visual output. This ensures that any static capture or manipulation attempt fails to represent the true document state.
2Reliability
If verification equipment or specific applications are used to verify the digital identity document, then security against falsification is improved, but additional investment in verification infrastructure is required
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-verification capabilities where the mobile device itself generates and displays the dynamic hologram with multiple image layers. The device uses its own sensors to detect parameters and selectively display appropriate image layers, eliminating the need for external verification equipment. The verification process is performed by the device itself through parameter-dependent display behavior.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a digital copy of the physical identity document that incorporates dynamic holographic elements. This digital duplicate contains multiple image layers that can be selectively displayed, providing security features comparable to physical documents without requiring specialized verification equipment. The copy is functionally equivalent for verification purposes.
3Reliability
If multiple photographs and 3D triangulation are used to generate a digital driver's license, then security is improved through complex image processing, but the generation process becomes complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary action by capturing a photograph during the identity verification process itself, rather than requiring separate photo acquisition sessions. The system extracts the photograph from the physical identity document and uses it immediately for generating the digital document with holographic elements. This integrates photo acquisition into the verification workflow, eliminating additional steps.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent extracts essential elements from the physical identity document (photograph, personal data) and uses them to generate the digital version. Rather than requiring multiple photographs and complex 3D scanning, the system extracts the necessary image and data elements directly from the physical document and combines them with device parameter associations to create the secure digital hologram.
4Ease of operation
If a static image is displayed in the digital identity document, then simplicity of display is maintained, but the document can be easily falsified through screenshots and video recordings
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic image layers that change based on mobile device parameters such as orientation, acceleration, and position. The hologram comprises multiple image layers that are selectively displayed according to real-time device parameter values, making the digital identity document dynamic rather than static. This dynamic behavior prevents falsification because captured images do not represent the actual state of the document at verification time.
