Augmented reality dynamic authentication
A system for performing authorization of a user in an augmented reality environment comprises an augmented reality user device, an automatic teller machine, and an authentication server. The automatic teller machine has a keypad with unmarked buttons. The augmented reality user device includes a display configured to overlay virtual objects onto a field of view of a user. The augmented reality user device receives a virtual keypad overlay, which assigns values to the unmarked buttons of the keypad. Using the overlay, the augmented reality user device displays the assigned values on the buttons of the keypad. The automatic teller machine detects an input sequence entered on the keypad and sends the input sequence to the authentication server. The authentication server determines an authentication code by combining the input sequence with the virtual keypad overlay, and compares the determined authentication code with an authentication code stored in a database.
1. A system for performing authorization of a user in an augmented reality environment, the system comprising:
an augmented reality user device, an automatic teller machine, and an authentication server;
the automatic teller machine comprising a physical keypad, the physical keypad comprising one more unmarked buttons;
the augmented reality user device comprising:
a display configured to overlay virtual objects onto a field of view of a user in real-time;
a memory; and
one or more processors coupled to the memory and the display;
the one or more processors operable to:
receive a virtual keypad overlay, the virtual keypad overlay comprising an assignment of values to each of the one or more unmarked buttons of the physical keypad, wherein the one or more processors are operable to receive the virtual keypad overlay from the authentication server;
display a graphical representation of the virtual keypad overlay on the physical keypad such that the assignment of values appears on the one more unmarked buttons of the physical keypad;
the automatic teller machine further comprising one or more processors, the one or more processors operable to:
detect an input sequence entered by the user on the physical keypad;
send the input sequence to the authentication server; and
receive an authentication response from the authentication server;
the authentication server comprising:
a memory operable to store a database, the database comprising one or more records associating a user identifier with a stored authentication code; and
one or more processors coupled to the memory, the one or more processors operable to:
receive the input sequence from the automatic teller machine;
determine, using the input sequence and the virtual keypad overlay, an authentication code;
identify the stored authentication code associated with the user from the database;
compare the determined authentication code with the stored authentication code associated with the user to authorize the user; and
send an authentication response to the automatic teller machine.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors of the augmented reality user device are operable to receive the virtual keypad overlay from the automatic teller machine.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors of the automatic teller machine are further operable to send the virtual keypad overlay to the authentication server.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors of the augmented reality user device are operable to send the virtual keypad overlay to the authentication server.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the augmented reality user device comprises a head-mounted display.
6. A method of performing authorization of a user in an augmented reality environment, the method comprising:
receiving, by an augmented reality user device, a virtual keypad overlay for a physical keypad of an automatic teller machine, wherein:
receiving the virtual keypad overlay comprises receiving the virtual keypad overlay from an authentication server;
the augmented reality user device comprises a display configured to overlay virtual objects onto a field of view of a user in real-time;
the physical keypad comprises a plurality of user inputs; and
the virtual keypad overlay comprises an assignment of values to each of the user inputs of the plurality of user inputs of the physical keypad;
displaying a graphical representation of the virtual keypad overlay on the physical keypad such that the assignment of values appears on the plurality of user inputs of the physical keypad;
detecting, by the automatic teller machine, an input sequence entered by the user on the physical keypad;
sending the input sequence to the authentication server;
determining, by the authentication server, an authentication code using the input sequence and the virtual keypad overlay;
comparing the determined authentication code with a stored authentication code associated with the user to authorize the user; and
sending an authentication response to the automatic teller machine.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein receiving the virtual keypad overlay comprises receiving the virtual keypad overlay from the automatic teller machine.
8. The method of claim 6 , further comprising sending, by the automatic teller machine, the virtual keypad overlay to the authentication server.
9. The method of claim 6 , further comprising sending, by the augmented reality user device, the virtual keypad overlay to the authentication server.
10. The method of claim 6 , wherein the augmented reality user device comprises a head-mounted display.
