Abstract

The remote electronic authentication method uses an electronic communication device (20) with a camera (21) and an authentication related server computer (30). In a connecting step the communication device (20) of the user is connected with the server computer via a communication line (40) and transmits image data sequences taken by the camera (21) to the server computer (30) which then identifies image portions of the acquired data stream related to an identity document shown in the image data sequences as well as image portions related to the head of a user at the user computer (20) in the same image data sequences. A comparison is made between an image of a head in the image related to the identity document and the image of the head of the user and a decision proposal is issued relating to identity of the heads from the two acquired image portions.

Claims8

Dependent claims

A system for executing remote electronic authentication comprising:

a user computer,
a user image acquisition device,
an authentication related server computer,
a server related display,
a server input device,
wherein the user computer can be connected with the server computer with a communication line,
wherein the user image acquisition device is adapted to take images and video sequences that comprise display details comprising an identity document as well as a head of a user of the system, wherein the user computer is adapted to retrieve the images and video sequences taken by the user image acquisition device and to transmit them to the authentication related server computer, wherein the server computer is adapted to identify image portions related to the identity document in a predetermined image and/or video sequences, is adapted to identify image portions related to the head of the user in the same predetermined image and/or video sequences and is further adapted to compare an image of a head in the image related to the identity document with the image of the head of the user and to issue a decision if the image of the head in the identity document is related to the image of the head of a user as retrieved as part of the acquired predetermined images and video sequences, being represented on the server related display together with said image portions, supporting an authenticating person at the server input device in its authentication decision.
