Solution Overview

Problem

Existing biometric access systems lack robust methods to verify user identity and maintain user continuity, particularly in gaming environments, leading to potential security breaches and unauthorized access.

Innovation Solution

Implementing a biometric system that combines physical and behavioral biometric data verification, using sensors to monitor user identity and detect changes in user behavior, ensuring continuous authentication through fingerprint readers, iris scanners, and monitoring heart rate, body temperature, and keystroke patterns to maintain user continuity.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If traditional biometric access systems are used, then device complexity is reduced, but reliability of user identity verification deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser identity verificationVSAvoidbiometric system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple biometric verification methods (fingerprint, iris, facial recognition) into a unified access control system. This integration allows the system to leverage the strengths of each individual biometric method while compensating for their weaknesses, thereby improving overall reliability of user identity verification without requiring separate systems for each method.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements a universal biometric verification platform that can handle multiple types of biometric data (physical, behavioral, physiological) through a single integrated architecture. This multi-functional approach allows the system to adapt to different verification needs and scenarios while maintaining a consistent user experience and management interface.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Reliability

If continuous biometric monitoring is implemented, then user continuity verification is improved, but use of energy increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser continuity verificationVSAvoidenergy consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements periodic biometric monitoring at strategically determined intervals rather than continuous monitoring. The verification frequency is adjusted based on risk assessment, user behavior patterns, and security requirements, allowing the system to maintain reliable user continuity verification while significantly reducing energy consumption compared to constant monitoring.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

Solution Approach 2:

The monitoring intensity and frequency are dynamically adjusted based on contextual factors such as location, time of day, user behavior anomalies, and security risk levels. This dynamic approach allows the system to increase verification rigor when risks are detected while reducing monitoring during low-risk periods, optimizing the balance between reliability and energy consumption.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Measurement precision

If multiple biometric verification methods are combined, then measurement precision of user identity is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser identity verification accuracyVSAvoidverification system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The verification system is segmented into distinct functional modules, each responsible for a specific biometric modality (fingerprint recognition module, iris recognition module, facial recognition module). This segmentation allows for independent optimization, maintenance, and configuration of each verification method while maintaining a unified system architecture that manages the complexity through modular design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
