Abstract

A system and method provides biometric authentication using proximity and secure information on a Personal Digital Key (PDK). The PDK is associated with and carried by a user. The PDK wirelessly communicates with a receiver/decoder circuit (RDC) that can be coupled to a variety of electronic devices. The PDK stores a biometric profile of a legitimate user in a secured memory. The PDK acquires biometric input from a user using a biometric reader of the PDK responsive to receiving a request for a biometric authentication of the legitimate user. The PDK compares the biometric input to the biometric profile to determine whether the biometric input matches the biometric profile. A secure wireless communication link is established between the PDK and a reader device responsive to a determination that the biometric input matches the biometric profile and the PDK device is within a predefined proximity of the reader device. The PDK device sends an identification code uniquely identifying the PDK device over the secure wireless communication link to the reader device. The reader device sends information including the identification code to a trusted third-party system for authentication.

Claims (52)

1. A method comprising:

detecting whether a user device is in proximity to a reader device, the reader device coupled to an electronic device;

responsive to detecting that the user device is in proximity to the reader device, wirelessly receiving a first identification code identifying the user device;

determining a second identification code identifying the reader device;

determining one or more user preferences using the first identification code and the second identification code;

determining configuration data specifying an operation of the electronic device and an operation of the user device based on the one or more user preferences;

automatically executing a sequence of distinct functions of the electronic device based on the configuration data; and

configuring a user interface of the user device to display the automatically executed sequence of distinct functions of the electronic device based on the configuration data.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

responsive to wirelessly receiving the first identification code identifying the user device, authenticating the user device using the first identification code.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

requesting biometric authentication of a user associated with the user device; and

responsive to determining that the biometric authentication of the user associated with the user device is successful, automatically executing the sequence of distinct functions of the electronic device.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

transmitting the configuration data to the electronic device; and

automatically configuring the operation of the electronic device based on the configuration data.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the configuration data specifying the operation of the electronic device further comprises changing a current setting of the electronic device to match the one or more user preferences.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the configuration data specifying the operation of the electronic device further comprises:

receiving the second identification code identifying the reader device;

determining one or more available functions executable by the electronic device based on the second identification code; and

determining the configuration data specifying the operation of the electronic device based on the one or more available functions executable by the electronic device.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein detecting whether the user device is in proximity to the reader device comprises detecting whether the user device is in proximity to the reader device for at least a predetermined period of time.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein automatically executing the sequence of distinct functions of the electronic device comprises storing the first identification code and the automatically executed sequence of district functions in an event log.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the reader device is operable on a same system as the electronic device.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the electronic device is one from a group of a gaming machine, a locking device, a kiosk, an automated teller machine, and a point of sale terminal.

11. A system comprising:

one or more processors; and

a memory including instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to:

detect whether a user device is in proximity to a reader device, the reader device coupled to an electronic device;

responsive to detecting that the user device is in proximity to the reader device, wirelessly receive a first identification code identifying the user device;

determine a second identification code identifying the reader device;

determine one or more user preferences using the first identification code and the second identification code;

determine configuration data specifying an operation of the electronic device and an operation of the user device based on the one or more user preferences;

automatically execute a sequence of distinct functions of the electronic device based on the configuration data; and

configure a user interface of the user device to display the automatically executed sequence of distinct functions of the electronic device based on the configuration data.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the system to:

authenticate the user device using the first identification code responsive to wirelessly receiving the first identification code identifying the user device.

13. The system of claim 11 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the system to:

request biometric authentication of a user associated with the user device; and

responsive to determining that the biometric authentication of the user associated with the user device is successful, automatically execute the sequence of distinct functions of the electronic device.

14. The system of claim 11 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the system to:

transmit the configuration data to the electronic device; and

automatically configure the operation of the electronic device based on the configuration data.

15. The system of claim 11 , wherein to determine the configuration data specifying the operation of the electronic device, the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the system to change a current setting of the electronic device to match the one or more user preferences.

16. The system of claim 11 , wherein to determine the configuration data specifying the operation of the electronic device, the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the system to:

receive the second identification code identifying the reader device;

determine one or more available functions executable by the electronic device based on the second identification code; and

determine the configuration data specifying the operation of the electronic device based on the one or more available functions executable by the electronic device.

17. The system of claim 11 , wherein to detect whether the user device is in proximity to the reader device, the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the system to detect whether the user device is in proximity to the reader device for at least a predetermined period of time.

18. The system of claim 11 , wherein to automatically execute the sequence of distinct functions of the electronic device, the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the system to store the first identification code and the automatically executed sequence of distinct functions in an event log.

19. The system of claim 11 , wherein the reader device is operable on a same system as the electronic device.

20. The system of claim 11 , wherein the electronic device is one from a group of a gaming machine, a locking device, a kiosk, an automated teller machine, and a point of sale terminal.
