Abstract
The invention relates generally to secure data entry devices and methods of using such devices. A secure data entry device is provided that includes an integrated imaging device arranged such that it captures at least one image of a user during a transaction. The at least one image is processed in order to generate a biometric pattern. In one embodiment the at least one image includes a user's face and the processing involves applying a facial recognition algorithm to the at least one image to generate the biometric pattern. In some embodiments the biometric pattern is compared to a trusted biometric pattern in order to determine whether to approve or decline the

A computer-implemented method for verifying a disputed electronic payment transaction using biometric pattern recognition, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a secure data entry system, a request to execute an electronic payment transaction involving a payment instrument;
- capturing, by the secure data entry system utilizing an imaging device, at least one image of a user during the electronic payment transaction;
- generating, by the secure data entry system utilizing a processing device, a first biometric pattern corresponding to the user based on the at least one captured image;
- storing, by the secure data entry system, the first biometric pattern in a database in association with the electronic payment transaction;
- receiving, by the secure data entry system, a dispute of the electronic payment transaction from a holder of the payment instrument;
- obtaining, by the secure data entry system, a second image of the holder of the payment instrument;
- generating, by the secure data entry system, a second biometric pattern based on the second image using a same algorithm used to generate the first biometric pattern;
- comparing, by the secure data entry system, the first biometric pattern with the second biometric pattern;
- and
- determining, by the processing device, the dispute of the electronic payment transaction is invalid based on the comparing.
A secure data entry system for verifying a disputed electronic payment transaction using biometric pattern recognition, the system comprising:
- an imaging device;
- a processing device;
- and
- a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by the processing device, cause the system to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a request to execute an electronic payment transaction involving a payment instrument;
- capturing, utilizing the imaging device, at least one image of a user during the electronic payment transaction;
- generating a first biometric pattern corresponding to the user based on the at least one captured image;
- storing the first biometric pattern in a database in association with the electronic payment transaction;
- receiving a dispute of the electronic payment transaction from a holder of the payment instrument;
- obtaining a second image of the holder of the payment instrument;
- generating a second biometric pattern based on the second image using a same algorithm used to generate the first biometric pattern;
- comparing the first biometric pattern with the second biometric pattern;
- and
- determining the dispute of the electronic payment transaction is invalid based on the comparing.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions for verifying a disputed electronic payment transaction using biometric pattern recognition, the instructions, when executed by one or more processors of a secure data entry system, causing the secure data entry system to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a request to execute an electronic payment transaction involving a payment instrument;
- capturing, utilizing an imaging device coupled to the secure data entry system, at least one image of a user during the electronic payment transaction;
- generating a first biometric pattern corresponding to the user based on the at least one captured image;
- storing the first biometric pattern in a database in association with the electronic payment transaction;
- receiving a dispute of the electronic payment transaction from a holder of the payment instrument;
- obtaining a second image of the holder of the payment instrument;
- generating a second biometric pattern based on the second image using a same algorithm used to generate the first biometric pattern;
- comparing the first biometric pattern with the second biometric pattern;
- and
- determining the dispute of the electronic payment transaction is invalid based on the comparing.
