This application claims priority to and benefit under 35 U.S.C. §119 to Great Britain Patent Application No. 1221469.8, filed Nov. 28, 2012, entitled “Airport Security Check System and Method Therefor”, by Michael John Gormley, et al., and under 35 U.S.C. §§119, 120 to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61/622,213, filed Apr. 10, 2012, entitled “Airport Security Check System and Method Therefor”, both of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties.
FIG. 3 a shows a passenger check-in screen;
FIG. 3 b shows a screen where the passenger enters supplementary passport details;
Operation of the security system 201 will now be described referring to FIGS. 2 to 5 of the drawings. FIGS. 3 a and 3 b show the process of checking in a passenger and illustrate the typical details which may be collected from a passenger at check-in.
In addition to the information described above which is entered during check-in or collected from the passenger profile at check-in, embodiments of the invention may prompt a user to enter additional passport details that are collected from the passenger. FIG. 3 b below illustrates the additional passport details or information that may be collected from a passenger at check-in.
2. Typically a security check is done to authenticate the identity of the traveller.
An NFC enabled telephone e.g. Samsung S3 or desktop reader may be used to read the NFC boarding pass stored on the passengers phone. As previously described, using the BAC details from the NFC boarding pass, the passengers' passport may also be read by an NFC enabled telephone or desktop reader at security. BAC provides access to the passengers' passport details and more importantly to the facial biometric image of the passenger. This may be performed by reading passport biometric facial image using the BAC information, at step 703, preferably saving the image on the phone. The passport details may then be automatically compared with the details in the NFC boarding pass e.g. first name and last name. In addition to this, the passenger or security officer may take the passenger picture using a front facing camera on using a telephone or other camera. The passenger may pose for a snapshot using a front facing camera on a phone, at step 705. After the picture is taken, a facial recognition algorithm may be used to automatically compare the picture to the passport facial biometric image. The algorithm compares the passport biometric facial image with the snapshot, at step 707.
16. A decryption system for decrypting user information encrypted on a storage device associated with a user identity document, the system comprising:
a server configured to collect user identity document data from the user and to construct a token comprising the user identity document data, wherein the server is further configured to send the token to a mobile device associated with the user for storing the token at the mobile device and wherein the mobile device is physically separate from said storage device;
a key construction unit communicatively coupled to a machine reader configured to read the data from the token by radio frequency identification communication with the mobile device,
wherein the token further comprises user identification information and in particular in which the reader is further configured to read the user identification information from the token and wherein the key construction unit uses the user identity document data read from the token, stored on the mobile device, to construct a key for decrypting the user information stored on said storage device;
