Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Traditional identity verification methods require physical journeys to qualified persons' offices, leading to inefficiencies and high abandonment rates, especially in remote transactions.
Innovation Solution
A method and system for remotely verifying identity using separate video and data connections to maintain uninterrupted video chats while capturing and comparing biometric and identifying data from a user's device, allowing efficient and secure identity verification.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional identity verification methods are used requiring physical journeys to qualified persons' offices, then identity verification can be conducted with qualified personnel, but the verification process becomes extremely slow and leads to high abandonment rates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the mechanical system of physical travel to qualified persons' offices with an electronic/video-based identification system. Users can participate in identification procedures remotely through video connections, eliminating the need for physical journeys while maintaining verification reliability through electronic document validation and biometric comparison.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary identification system that mediates between the user and the qualified person requirements. The system uses video technology and electronic document verification as intermediaries to achieve the verification objective without requiring direct physical presence at qualified persons' offices.
2Productivity
If separate video and data connections are used for remote identity verification, then video chats remain uninterrupted and verification efficiency improves, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the communication channel into separate video connection and data connection pathways. The video connection handles real-time visual interaction and biometric capture, while the data connection handles document transmission and verification data exchange. This segmentation allows both functions to operate simultaneously without interference, improving verification efficiency.

AI summary
A computer-implemented method for remotely verifying an identity of a user is presented. The method comprises a first data processing device (120) receiving a live video stream (102) of the user from a second data processing device (140) via a video data connection (108) having a video bandwidth. Establishing a separate data connection (110) between the first (120) and second (140) data processing devices, the data connection (110) having a data bandwidth. The first data processing device (120) receiving, via the data connection (110), identifying data (104) captured from an identifying means from the second data processing device (140), or another data processing device. The first data processing device (120) determining first biometric data based on the identifying data (104) and comparing to second biometric data based on the live video stream (102). The first data processing device (120) then verifying an identity of the user based on a correspondence between the first biometric data and the second biometric data.
