Abstract

The invention relates to a complete personal identification system comprising two parts. The first part consists of an intelligent electronic chip which can be used to store basic encrypted information about the individual to be identified (name and other personal data as well as a finger print, used alone or accompanied by other biometric identification parameters). Said chip can be integrated in an independent identification card or in other cards or documents, such as bank cards, credit cards or passports). The second part comprises a device that performs two functions consisting in: 1) reading the personal and biometric information contained in the chip which is carried by the identified individual; and 2) comparing said information with the information read for the same biometric parameter taken directly from the person to be identified.

Description

PERSONAL FULL IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM

DESCRIPTION

TECHNICAL SECTOR

In all the acts of the people the needs to establish with certainty the identity of the actors that with their acts affect the life, goods and conditions of the people, the States and the Companies or Corporations are known; and at the same time leave a record of time and place of said verification or identification certainty.

STATE OF THE TECHNIQUE

STATE OF THE TECHNIQUE I

In the desire to cover these needs, instruments and identification elements have been developed that work with the senses of man (touch, sight, hearing) and identification documents that operate by comparison have been made using these same senses. These instruments are susceptible to falsification and allow the impersonation of the identified individual because YOU DON'T IN REAL LINK with the carrier.

This is how photography has been universally used as an element of identification. In this case the identity verification consists of a comparison that is subject to the judgment of! observer.

The highest degree of security for issuing identifications is to use elements that are difficult to imitate to prevent counterfeiting but impersonation is not eliminated.

STATE OF THE TECHNIQUE 2

Electronic systems for comparing the biometric characteristics ⁽¹⁾ that collate against a database have also been developed, where the individualized characteristic of the person to be identified is registered in the database, and when it coincides with that of the individual , deposited in the database, this person is identified, This system is mainly used for authorization of access to systems or restricted circulation sites. But it has the limitation of being selective and stationary for the people and places where it is installed.

^!) such as the reading of fingerprints or plantar, reading of the iris of the eyes, morphology of the face or hands as a topographic map, definition of the map of the back of the hand.

STATE OF THE TECHNIQUE 3

There are other developments where numerical or alphanumeric codes are used to match a card or document that has a barcode or a

SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) magnetic stripe or any other memory element, which by giving the correct code along with the card, the desired transaction or access is allowed. This system has the disadvantage that the identified element itself is the card, not the person, and impersonation and falsification of the document can occur.

STATE OF THE TECHNIQUE 4

The problem of the verification of personal identification at any time or place without having to be previously included in a database, which serves as a reference point, as is the case of the technology explained in the STATE OF THE TECHNIQUE 2, is in which it has been impossible to create a true link or direct real relationship between the individual to be identified and the document that it carries as identification, since the possibility of impersonation or falsification of the document is presented, therefore the problem persists to provide a means General and agile identification with certainty.

CONTRIBUTIONS OF THE INVENTION TO TECHNOLOGY

The invention provides technology as a novelty, the ability to identify someone at any time with full certainty, without having to go to data banks or peripheral files.

EXAMPLE I: When a person is going to cash a check at the bank window, they are required to present the citizenship card and it is "verified" that on the back of the check it is signed by the collector with his identification number . In this event several things happen very frequently: The check can be stolen or forcibly drawn, so to collect it the fraudster must: a) Carry a false identity document, with a similar photograph and with this they pay the check. This raises counterfeiting and / or impersonation and the crime goes unpunished because the debt collector is unidentifiable. b) Carry the identity document of the original beneficiary and with this they pay the check. This poses impersonation and the crime goes unpunished. c) Carry an authentic document of another person and make a double endorsement and with this they pay the check. This poses impersonation and the crime goes unpunished. And another innocent person is accused.

In these three cases, which are very frequent and create innumerable and serious problems for those affected, the circumstance that allows these crimes to be committed is the total impossibility of certifying the identity of the debt collector, because there is no real link between the individual and the identification document. With the invention: If the Bank has the dual-use device with which the collector of the aforementioned check, provides the identity document that allows the association and instant real comparison with the carrier's fingerprint, unequivocally establishes the authenticity of the identification of the individual.

What is the identification sequence:

1. I. The identifying device can only open and read the smart electronic chip if it is intact.

2. Once you have read the chip, you have read the fingerprint

3. At the same time the device reads the collector's fingerprint,

4. If the two fingerprints are the same, you are authorized to pay the check, which means that this individual with that fingerprint cashed the check at a certain office and at a certain time.

5. If the collector was fraudulent, (it can be only if a check was stolen and double endorsed but charged with his real identification) with which only two things happen: Or it is fully identified and it is easy to stop it, or it simply abstains of committing the illicit.

6. This method reduces transaction time and takes very few seconds to make full identification

Under these conditions, the invention presented here provides security elements that will reduce the fraud that is present in commercial transactions, hidden in impersonation and falsification of documents, which allow the anonymity of the criminal and the consequent impunity.

EXAMPLE 2: In the execution of a confidential process in a system, for example authorization of transfer of funds or authorization of delivery of goods or services, magnetic stripe cards are used with verification by means of a key. In this case, the executor passes the card and digits the key, and the operation is authorized, but it is not certain that: whoever digitized the key is the authorized person, because it can happen, and it happens a lot, that they falsify the cards or they take "borrowed" and just by typing the password they impersonate the authorized one.

With the invention: only if the operator's footprint coincides with that stored on the card, the operation is performed. In this case it is undeniable that the executor was the one who appears as such. And the risk of impersonation is completely eliminated.

EXAMPLE 3: In prison visits it may happen that the prisoner is changed by the visitor.

With the invention it is impossible for this to happen.

EXAMPLE 4: In an airport people must go through immigration or emigration and impersonation with false or authentic passports is frequent because despite the security elements, impersonation is very possible. With the invention there is a true link between the passport and the person who shows it, because if the passport has integrated the smart electronic chip, the identity is verified with the bearer's footprint, or the identity is also authenticated with an independent card, which authenticate the matching data between the passport and an individual already verified.

EXAMPLE 5: In commercial and stock exchange transactions, whether traditional or electronic, it is necessary to certify a proposal or order, as well as the payment by means of verbal debit note. On many occasions, there are failed transactions because the computer is an impostor, or it does not have the ability to perform this transaction.

With the invention: if the identifying device is properly conditioned to certify an identity, or to authenticate the identity of an actor, only an authorized person can make the transaction.

EXAMPLE 6: Double voting or impersonation is presented in electoral processes.

With the invention this possibility is totally eliminated.

As you can see the contribution to technology is very important, and of immeasurable magnitudes, because the contribution in total security, certainty and agility are incomparable with current methods.

This is due to the fact that fingerprint comparison operations (or other physical or biometric characteristics) are done against static, institutional, pre-established databases, which are difficult to access quickly, and is another identification orientation, although Use similar concepts and developments.

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The general objective of the present invention is to provide an identification system or method that fully guarantees that the identified individual does correspond to the identity of the person whose description is described or contained in a portable identity document. And that the acts that that individual is carrying out and the consequences thereof, correspond to the real will of that individual and this circumstance can be verified or certified later. GENERAL UTILITY OF THE PERSONAL FULL IDENTIFICATION METHOD

Method or system to perform the full identification of a person to make prior, simultaneous or subsequent control of any activity in which you want to be sure that the actor is fully identified and thus avoid impersonations and / or falsifications.

It allows:

1. Record time and escape people's actions,

2. Facilitate the meeting of wanted people for any reason,

3. Give a total and verifiable identification at any time by the official organisms of the States or Nations, of the companies, conglomerates, associations, corporations and entities of the public or private sector.

4. Make verifications of total certainty regarding the identity and identification in banking, immigration or emigration transactions,

5. Make access and exit controls of systems, buildings or vehicles, notarial procedures for civil registration and commercial transactions, proof of permanence in sites or territories, granting, handling and control of visas in countries, handling and control of infringements of traffic or violations of civil or criminal law, electoral management, civil registration of births and deaths, medical or health procedures, search for lost persons, search for fugitives from justice, identification of bodies.

6. When complementing this system with memory and archiving systems, record full identification of student exam processes, laboratory tests, X-rays in laboratories or airports, commercial transactions, dates and places of immigration or emigration.

7. Control access and exit with full and real identification of restricted access areas such as bank vaults, security areas such as prisons or military or detention centers.

8. In electronic commerce transactions to certify the identity of the actor, as in the request for certain information classified for adults on electronic pages or telephone calls for adults. EXPLANATION OF THE FIGURES OF THE TWO COMPONENTS OF THE STSTEMA
