Abstract
The methods and systems are designed to utilize an integrated combination of just in time, just in place, and just on device actions connected to an image recognition process for monitoring criminals who are probation, offenders who are on parole, sex offenders, and witnesses under protection by law enforcement.
Claims20
A system for registering and monitoring a criminal offender over a network, the system comprising:
- an app downloadable to a device comprising a camera, a GPS locator, a network interface, and a user interface, the app comprises:
- a process to initiate an offender to take and capture a picture of an offender's face with the camera;
- a process to capture a first set of GPS coordinates, a first time and a date of the picture of the offender's face;
- a process to initiate the offender to take and capture a picture of an identification card with the camera;
- a process to capture a second set of GPS coordinates, a second time and a date of the picture of the identification card;
- a process to capture identification data of the device;
- a process to send data comprising at least one of the picture of the offender's face, the picture of the identification card, the first set of GPS coordinates, the second set of GPS coordinates, the first time and date of the picture of the offender's face, the second time and date of the picture of the identification card, and the identification data to a location on the network;
- and
- a process to receive and communicate information;
- an identification engine on a server at the location on the network, the identification engine comprising:
- an input configured to receive the data from the app;
- an image comparison algorithm configured to compare the picture of the offender's face, the picture of the identification card, then determine the likelihood that the offender and a person in the picture of the identification card are substantially the same;
- and
- a time comparison algorithm configured to determine if the first time and date of the picture of the offender's face, the second time and date of the picture of the identification card are substantially the same;
- and
- a registration token to be sent to the app if the offender and a person in the picture of the identification card are substantially the same, and if the first time and date of the picture of the offender's face, the second time and date of the picture of the identification card are substantially the same.

A method for registering and monitoring a criminal offender over a network, the method comprising;
- generating an image of a face of an offender at a first location with a device comprising a clock and a GPS;
- tagging the image with GPS coordinates of the first location;
- tagging the image with a time and a date of the generating of the image;
- generating an image of an identification card comprising a picture of the offender at a second location;
- tagging the image of the identification card with GPS coordinates of the second location;
- tagging the image of the identification card with a time and date of the generating of the image of the identification card;
- comparing the image of the face and the image of the picture of the offender;
- determining the likelihood that the image of the face and the image of the picture of the offender are substantially the same;
- determining if the GPS coordinates of the first location and the GPS coordinates of the second location are substantially the same;
- determining if the time and date of the generating the image of the face and the time and date of the generating the image of the identification card are within a defined time window;
- retrieving device identification data from the device;
- tagging the image with the device identification data of the device generating the image of the face;
- tagging the image of the identification card with the device identification data of the device generating the image of the identification card;
- determining if the device identification data of the device generating the image of the face and the device identification data of the device generating the image of the identification card are the same;
- and
- generating a registration token, if the image of the face and the image of the picture of the offender are substantially the same, if the GPS coordinates of the first location and the GPS coordinates of the second location are substantially the same, if the time and date of the generating the image of the face and the time and date of the generating the image of the identification card are within the defined time window, and if the device identification data of the device generating the image of face and the device identification data of the device generating the image of the identification card are the same.
