Abstract:
1. A method for validating an identity attribute of a user operating a remote client, comprising: maintaining, in a computer memory, a record associating the user to at least one physical token having a defined appearance; transmitting pose instructions and a message containing image information for appearing on the at least one physical token to the remote client, using a computer; wherein the pose instructions reference the at least one physical token and the image information is formatted for display on a screen of an auxiliary imaging device in use by the user; receiving image data in response to the transmitting of pose instructions; performing image analysis of the image data using an automated algorithm and the record associating the user to the at least one physical token to determine an indication of whether or not the pose instructions were followed by the user so that an image of the at least one physical token including a display generated from the image information appears with an image of the user in the image data; and validating the identity attribute of the user at least partly in response to the indication.
