The present system and method enables the automatic detection and identification of authorized users within proximity of a computing apparatus and, after verifying, using biometric detection and analysis, that the user is authorized to access the target, providing the user with such access. The system comprises a computer appliance target requiring authentication of a user in order to access the target, including software stored on and executing from the target, a biometric input device, and a transceiver enabling short-range wireless communication with other wireless capable devices; a database accessible to the target; and a beacon device associated with the user, including at least a transceiver and a locally stored encrypted identity token associating the device with the identity of the user; wherein the transceiver on the target periodically scans for the beacon device within the short-range, and upon detection, establishes communication with the beacon device and requests the identity token, the beacon device receives the request and sends the identity token back to the target which decrypts and validates the token by comparing token data with stored token data in the database and upon successful decryption and validation of the identity token, the software initializes a biometric test input to positively identify the user in possession of the beacon, wherein the software of the target attempts to match the biometric input with second biometric input of the user stored in the database and upon a successful match, unlocks the target and allows the user to operate the target.

Method and system for providing real-time location previews. For example, a system and method for collecting data about activity levels, including persons waiting in queues and density of persons, as well as environmental conditions of a location from one or more client devices and/or user devices; processing the collected data to remove privacy concerns, calculate queue times, density levels and other activity levels within a defined location, and retrieve contextual and historical information, including scheduled events, relevant to determining anticipated level of activity and environmental conditions within and around a location; and making processed data available to users via communications network for purpose of previewing a location.

A preferred embodiment of a video conferencing system that may employ a video camera capable of capturing a view approximating 360 degrees, a viewing screen positioned to allow natural eye contact between conference participants, and a processing module capable of receiving and processing multiple data streams from video and audio capturing devices as well as data streams from other sources. In some embodiments, the video camera may be mounted above or below the viewing screen to capture an approximately 360 degree view of all locally appearing participants as well as the surrounding conference environment. The video conferencing system allows multiple participants participating from a single location to communicate easily and maintain natural eye contact with one another while maintaining eye contact with persons appearing from remote locations.
摘要:
A system and method for securely and automatically identifying users to an inquirer for purposes of obtaining user identifying information is described. The system consisting of at least one client device associated with a user, at least one inquiring device associated with a host, a client information server and a network. The system allows computer based systems to automatically authenticate the identities of a plurality of users entering a physical space and obtain information pertaining to user preferences. The inquiring device sending second data, identifying the inquiring device, to the client device and requests the token from the client device and the client device updates the token with the second data sending the token back to the inquiring device which forwards the token to the server validating the user and sends specific preference and profile data of the user to the inquiring device based upon the second data.

The system allows computer based systems to automatically authenticate the identities of a plurality of users entering a physical space and obtain information pertaining to user preferences. The inquiring device may enable transactions with the user based on the authentication. The authentication may be enhanced by capturing biometric data from the user by the inquiring device as well as identifying known associates physically present with the user at the time of authentication.
