Systems and methods for using micro accelerations as a biometric identification factor

1. A system for authentication using an electronic card, comprising:

one or more memory devices storing software instructions; and

one or more processors configured to execute software instructions to perform operations comprising:

receiving micro acceleration data collected by one or more accelerometers of an electronic card;

determining, based on micro acceleration data, one or more normalized Hausdorff space patterns;

determining, based on the one or more normalized Hausdorff space patterns, an identifying pattern representative of a movement pattern of a user associated with the card;

comparing the identifying pattern with a reference pattern;

authenticating, based on the comparison, an identity of the user; and

determining, based on the comparison, that the user is not an authorized person to possess the card.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein authenticating the identity of the user comprises at least one of: approving a financial transaction, granting a secured access, or receiving confidential information.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise:

upon determining that the user is not an authorized person to possess the card, transmitting a notification to a device associated with the card.

4. The system of claim 3 , wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving, from the device associated with the card, a response authorizing a use of the card; and

authenticating the identity of the user.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise:

using the identifying pattern as one factor in a multi-factor authentication to authenticate the identity of the user.

6. A system for authentication using an electronic card, comprising:

one or more memory devices storing software instructions; and

one or more processors configured to execute software instructions to perform operations comprising:

receiving reference micro acceleration data from an electronic card;

determining, based on micro acceleration data, the reference pattern;

storing the reference pattern into a storage device;

receiving, from the electronic card, micro acceleration data collected by one or more accelerometers of the card;

determining, based on the micro acceleration data, one or more normalized Hausdorff space patterns;

determining, based on the one or more normalized Hausdorff space patterns, an identifying pattern representative of a movement pattern of a user associated with the card;

comparing the identifying pattern with the reference pattern; and

authenticating, based on the comparison, an identity of the user.

7. A method for authentication using an electronic transaction card, comprising:

receiving micro acceleration data collected by one or more accelerometers of an electronic card;

determining, based on micro acceleration data, one or more normalized Hausdorff space patterns;

determining, based on the one or more normalized Hausdorff space patterns, an identifying pattern representative of a movement pattern of a user associated with the card;

comparing the identifying pattern with one or more reference patterns; and

determining, based on the comparison, that the user is not an authorized person to possess the card.

8. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:

upon determining that the user is not an authorized person to possess the card, transmitting a notification to a device associated with the card.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

receiving, from the device associated with the card, a response authorizing a use of the card; and

approving a financial transaction.

10. A method for authentication using an electronic transaction card, comprising:

receiving reference micro acceleration data;

determining, based on micro acceleration data, a reference pattern;

storing the reference pattern into a storage device;

receiving the micro acceleration data collected by one or more accelerometers of an electronic card;

determining, based on the micro acceleration data, one or more normalized Hausdorff space patterns;

determining, based on the one or more normalized Hausdorff space patterns, an identifying pattern representative of a movement pattern of a user associated with the card;

comparing the identifying pattern with the reference pattern;

determining, based on the comparison, that the user is an authorized user of the card; and

upon determining that the user is an authorized user of the card, approving a financial transaction.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein receiving reference micro acceleration data comprises:

receiving the reference micro acceleration data from the card.
