Identification verification using a device with embedded radio-frequency identification functionality

1. A computer-implemented method for identification (ID) verification using a device with embedded radio-frequency identification (RFID) functionality, the method comprising:

receiving, by a client device, an image of an ID document, wherein the ID document includes an RFID chip storing digital data associated with the ID document, the RFID chip being embedded in the ID document;

transmitting, by the client device, the image to a server to retrieve printed data associated with the ID document;

receiving, from the server, the printed data;

unlocking, by an RFID reader, the RFID chip using the printed data;

retrieving, by the RFID reader, the digital data from the RFID chip;

sending, by the client device, the digital data retrieved from the RFID chip to the server;

comparing, by the server, the digital data from the RFID chip of the ID document with the printed data associated with the ID document;

based on the comparing, determining, by the server, that the digital data and the printed data are identical; and

based on the determining, verifying, by the server, the ID document.

2. The method of claim 1 further comprising: capturing, by a camera associated with the client device, the image of the ID document.

3. The method of claim 1 further comprising: scanning, by an external device associated with the client device, the ID document to obtain the image of the ID document.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the retrieving of the printed data includes recognizing the printed data by optical character recognition.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the retrieving of the printed data includes detecting at least one zone on the image, wherein the at least one zone contains the printed data associated with the ID document of a holder, and extracting the printed data from the image.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the retrieving the digital data from the RFID chip includes decrypting the digital data using the printed data as a key.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the printed data includes a name of a holder, a date of birth of the holder, a gender of the holder, a fingerprint of the holder, a number of the ID document, and an expiration date of the ID document.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the digital data from the RFID chip duplicates the printed data retrieved from the server.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: based on the comparing, providing, by the server, a verification result for the ID document.

10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: transmitting, by the server, a verification result to the client device.

11. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: based on a verification result, automatically populating, by the client device, a fill-in form with the digital data retrieved from the RFID chip.

12. A system for identification (ID) document verification, the system comprising:

a processor associated with a client device and configured to:

receive an image of an ID document, wherein the ID document includes a radio-frequency identification (RFID) chip storing digital data associated with the ID document, the RFID chip being embedded in the ID document;

transmit the image to a server to retrieve printed data associated with the ID document;

receive the printed data from the server;

receive the digital data from the RFID chip from an RFID reader communicably coupled with the client device;

send the digital data retrieved from the RFID chip to the server, the server configured to:

compare the digital data from the RFID chip of the ID document with the printed data associated with the ID document;

based on the comparing, determine that the digital data and the printed data are identical; and

based on the determining, verify the ID document.

13. The system of claim 12 , further comprising: a camera configured to capture the image of the ID document, wherein the camera is connected to the client device or is a standalone camera.

14. The system of claim 12 , wherein the RFID reader is a part of the client device, detachably attached to the client device via a port of the client device or communicating with the client device wirelessly.

15. The system of claim 12 , wherein the client device includes at least one of the following: a smart phone, a laptop, a tablet personal computer, and a personal computer.

16. The system of claim 12 , wherein the ID document includes at least one of the following: a biometric passport, a digital passport, a government issued ID document, a student ID document, an employment ID document, a travel document, and a driver's license.

17. The system of claim 12 , wherein the printed data includes at least one of the following: a name of a holder, a date of birth of the holder, a gender of the holder, a fingerprint of the holder, a number of the ID document, and an expiration date of the ID document.

18. The system of claim 12 , further comprising: a database in communication with the processor and configured to store at least the printed data, the digital data, and the verification result.

19. The system of claim 12 , wherein the server is further configured to provide, based on the comparing, a verification result for the ID document.

20. A system for identification (ID) document verification, the system comprising:

a camera configured to capture an image of an ID document, wherein the camera is connected to a client device; and

a processor associated with the client device and configured to:

receive the image of the ID document, wherein the ID document includes a radio-frequency identification (RFID) chip storing digital data associated with the ID document, the RFID chip being embedded in the ID document;

transmit the image to a server;

receive the digital data from the RFID chip from an RFID reader communicably coupled with the client device;

send the digital data retrieved from the RFID chip to the server, the server configured to:

compare the digital data from the RFID chip of the ID document with printed data associated with the ID document; and

based on the comparing, provide a verification result for the ID document.
