A MULTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION SYSTEM USING GESTURE RECOGNITION AND OBJECT PRESENTATION AND METHOD THEREOF

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for multi-factor authentication using gesture or object presentation or combination thereof as authentication credentials, comprising steps of initiating an enrollment procedure using a video source for receiving generated signal from user sample for setting an authentication credential or visual password; optionally visually validating and confirming the visual password; storing generated signal data or templates from enrolled user samples in a memory unit; performing visual authentication by user at the time of authentication; receiving the generated signal from the user by means of a video source; comparing the generated signal from the user with the templates of enrolled user samples by a processing unit coupled to a computer readable medium containing programmable code; obtaining a personalized similarity threshold by comparison of generated user signal with predefined user signal; and comparing the generated real time values to the stored values.
