Abstract
A method of identifying a test-taker is disclosed. The method includes the step of sampling a biometric characteristic of the test-taker, and may include the step of sampling a second biometric characteristic of the test-taker. The method may include the step of identifying the test administrator by sampling a biometric characteristic of the test administrator. A method of authorizing the administration of a test is also disclosed.
Claims3
A method of associating a person's fingerprint and facial identification data, including the steps of:
- (a) capturing a static identifier from a person;
- (b) simultaneously with the capture of the static identifier, measuring a time-varying biometric parameter of the person at the location the static identifier is captured, and measuring and displaying information representative of the time-varying biometric parameter at a second location proximal to the person's face;
- (c) simultaneously with the capture of the static identifier, capturing in a single visual image, data of representative of the person's facial characteristics and the information displayed at the second location at the time of the visual capture;
- (d) intermingling with the visual image data of the facial characteristics with,
- (i) the static identifier captured at the time visual image data was captured, and
- (ii) the time-varying biometric parameter measured at the same time the visual image and static identifier was measured to form a data set unique to the person at the time the visual image was captured;
- and
- (e) recognizing the association only if the measurement of the time-varying biometric parameter measured at the location of the static identifier capture matches the measurement of the time-varying biometric parameter at the time the visual image is captured.
