Abstract
A portable device is provided. The portable device may include a display; an input device; a camera; a processor coupled to the display, the input device, and the camera; and a computer readable medium coupled to the processor, the computer readable medium comprising code, executable by the processor, to implement a method comprising: receiving authentication data from the input device, determining whether the received authentication data matches authentication data associated with an authorized user, and displaying, on the display, a credential, an item, and data associated with the item.
Claims20
A portable device comprising:
- a display;
- an input device;
- a camera;
- a processor coupled to the display, the input device, and the camera;
- and
- a non-transitory computer readable medium coupled to the processor, the non-transitory computer readable medium comprising code, which when executed by the processor, causes the portable device to:
- receive authentication data from the input device while the display is in a locked mode that prevents a transaction credential from being displayed;
- determine whether the received authentication data corresponds to previously stored authentication data associated with an authorized user;
- in response to determining that the received authentication data corresponds to the previously stored authentication data associated with the authorized user, transition the display from the locked mode into a transaction mode to allow an object within a field of view of the camera of the portable device to be shown on the display;
- capture, by the camera, an image of the object while the display is in the transaction mode;
- present the image of the object on the display of the portable device;
- retrieve product information associated with the object in the image being presented on the display of the portable device;
- overlay the product information on or proximate to the object in the image being presented on the display;
- and
- initiate a transaction to purchase the object by providing, to an access device or a server computer, an identifier associated with the object and a transaction credential, wherein the transaction is approved or denied based on whether the transaction credential corresponds to a valid account identifier associated with the authorized user.
A method of conducting a transaction using a portable device, the method comprising:
- receiving authentication data from an input device of the portable device while a display of the portable device is in a locked mode that prevents a transaction credential from being displayed;
- determining whether the received authentication data corresponds to previously stored authentication data associated with an authorized user;
- in response to determining that the received authentication data corresponds to the previously stored authentication data associated with the authorized user, transitioning the display from the locked mode into a transaction mode to allow an object within a field of view of a camera of the portable device to be shown on the display;
- capturing, by the camera of the portable device while the display is in the transaction mode, an image of the object;
- presenting the image of the object on the display of the portable device;
- retrieving product information associated with the object in the image being presented on the display of the portable device;
- overlaying the product information on or proximate to the object in the image being presented on the display;
- and
- initiating a transaction to purchase the object by providing, to an access device or a server computer, an identifier associated with the object and a transaction credential, wherein the transaction is approved or denied based on whether the transaction credential corresponds to a valid account identifier associated with the authorized user.
