Abstract
A method for enrolling a holder of a biometric transaction device includes the following step: storing at least one biometric pattern in the device. The method further includes the following steps: a) providing the holder with a portable, mobile power connector, configured to trigger the storing; b) and/or activating the biometric pattern, the activation being carried out in response to or in association with a successful authentication of the holder. A corresponding system is also enclosed.
Claims5
A method for enrolling a holder of a biometric transaction device comprising a microcontroller, sensor, processor and memory, the method comprising:
- receiving, by the processor, power from a portable mobile power supply connector;
- storing, by the processor, a plurality of biometric patterns in the memory;
- generating, by the processor, a reference biometric template of the holder from the plurality of biometric patterns;
- initiating, by the processor, a financial transaction with a POS;
- based on the initiating, capturing, by the sensor, biometric data;
- sending, by the processor, a request comprising the captured biometric data to the microcontroller;
- determining, by the microcontroller, that the captured biometric data is not present in the memory by comparing the captured biometric data to the reference biometric template data;
- sending, by the microcontroller, a response to the processor;
- receiving, by the processor, the response and activating, by the processor, the captured biometric based on the received response;
- and
- executing, by the processor, the financial transaction, using the activated biometric data.
A device for enrolling a holder of the device, the device comprising:
- a microcontroller;
- a sensor;
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing executable instructions that when executed by the processor causes the processor to perform the steps of:
- storing a plurality of biometric patterns in the memory;
- generating a reference biometric template of the holder from the plurality of biometric patterns;
- initiating a financial transaction with a POS;
- based on initiating, capturing via the sensor biometric data;
- sending a request comprising the captured biometric data to the microcontroller;
- determining via the microcontroller that the captured biometric data is not present in the memory by comparing the captured biometric data to the reference biometric template data;
- sending via the microcontroller a response;
- receiving the response and activating the captured biometric data based on the received response;
- and
- executing the financial transaction, using the activated biometric data.
