Abstract:
Provided are systems and methods of attendance verification using mobile electronic devices (or “mobile devices”). In some embodiments, a person's biometric data is acquired and verified locally by a mobile device associated with the person while the mobile device is located in a geographic region associated with an event, and attendance data, including an indication of the verification of the biometric data along with a unique identifier of the mobile device, such as an international mobile equipment identity (IMEI) of the mobile device, is transmitted to an attendance server that makes a record of the person's attendance of the event based on the attendance data.

Claim (Index 15):
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising program instructions stored thereon that are executable by a processor to cause the following operations:\n conducting, by a mobile electronic device, a registration operation comprising:\n acquiring, by the mobile electronic device, a fingerprint of a person associated with the mobile electronic device; \n storing, in a memory of the mobile electronic device, characteristics of the fingerprint of the person associated with the mobile electronic device; and \n sending, by the mobile electronic device to an attendance server, registration data comprising:\n a personal identifier of the person associated with the mobile electronic device; and \n an international mobile equipment identity (IMEI) of the mobile electronic device; \n \n generating, by the attendance server using the personal identifier of the person associated with the mobile electronic device and the IMEI of the mobile electronic device of the registration data, a mapping of the IMEI of the mobile electronic device to the personal identifier of the person associated with the mobile electronic device in a device mapping, the device mapping comprising a mapping of international mobile equipment identities (IMEIs) to respective personal identifiers, the attendance server comprising:\n the device mapping; and \n an attendance record comprising a listing of attendance events documenting attendance of persons at events; \n acquiring, by the mobile electronic device, a fingerprint of a user of the mobile electronic device by way of a fingerprint scanner, the a mobile electronic device comprising:\n the memory,\n the IMEI of the mobile electronic device stored in the memory of the mobile electronic device, and \n the characteristics of the fingerprint of the person associated with the mobile electronic device stored in the memory of the mobile electronic device; and \n \n the fingerprint scanner; \n determining, by the mobile electronic device, a time and date of the acquisition of the fingerprint of the user by way of the fingerprint scanner; determining, by the mobile electronic device, a location of the mobile electronic device at the time of the acquisition of the fingerprint of the user by way of the fingerprint scanner; comparing, by the mobile electronic device, characteristics of the fingerprint of the user acquired to the characteristics of the fingerprint of the person associated with the mobile electronic device stored in the memory of the mobile electronic device to determine whether the user is the person associated with the mobile electronic device; in response to the mobile electronic device determining that the user is the person associated with the mobile electronic device, sending, by the mobile electronic device to the attendance server, attendance data comprising:\n the IMEI of the mobile electronic device; \n the time and date of the acquisition of the fingerprint of the user by way of the fingerprint scanner; and \n the location of the mobile electronic device at the time of the acquisition of the fingerprint of the user by way of the fingerprint scanner; and \n in response to the attendance server receiving the attendance data:\n determining, by the attendance server, the personal identifier of the person associated with the mobile electronic device based on the mapping of the IMEI of the mobile electronic device to the personal identifier of the person associated with the mobile electronic device in the device mapping; and \n generating, by the attendance server, in the attendance record, an attendance event associating the person associated with the mobile electronic device with at an event associated with the time and date of the acquisition of the fingerprint of the user by way of the fingerprint scanner and the location of the mobile electronic device at the time of the acquisition of the fingerprint of the user by way of the fingerprint scanner, to document attendance of the person associated with the mobile electronic device at the event.
