Biometric identification device with removable card capabilities
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- storing, in a memory of a personal identification device and during an enrollment procedure for enrolling a user of the personal identification device with an enrollment station, at least one of a biometric input of the user or a first identification credential from a plurality of identification credentials, the personal identification device including;
a housing configured to receive therein an integrated circuit, the integrated circuit storing electronic data including a first user identification credential,a biometric sensor at least partially disposed in the housing, the biometric sensor configured to receive a biometric input,the memory, the memory being disposed in the housing, the memory configured to store the plurality of identification credentials,a processor disposed within the housing and configured to be in electrical communication with the biometric sensor and the memory, the processor configured to determine whether the first user identification credential of the integrated circuit matches the first identification credential from the plurality of identification credentials, anda transceiver coupled to and at least partially disposed in the housing, the transceiver configured to be in electrical communication with at least one of the processor or the memory, the transceiver configured to wirelessly transmit the first identification credential from the plurality of identification credentials to an external device when (1) the user is enrolled with the enrollment station, (2) the first user identification credential of the integrated circuit is determined to match the first identification credential from the plurality of identification credentials, and (3) the biometric input is determined to match the stored biometric input; and
transmitting, from the personal identification device to the enrollment station and during the enrollment procedure, information associated with the user.

Abstract
A removable card-enabled BPID Security Device integrates a removable card reader with a biometric authentication component to provide secured access to electronic systems. The device allows for an individual to insert a removable card into an aperture in the physical enclosure of the BPID Security Device, allowing the removable card and the BPID Security Device to electronically communicate with each other. The BPID Security Device is based on a custom application specific integrated circuit that incorporates removable card terminals, such that the BPID Security Device can communicate directly with an inserted removable card. In an alternative embodiment of the invention, the BPID Security Device is based on a commercial off-the-shelf microprocessor, and may communicate with a commercial off-the-shelf microprocessor removable card receiver using a serial, USB, or other type of communication protocol. The device allows for enrolling a user'"'"'s credentials onto the BPID Security Device and for authenticating an individual using the BPID Security Device.
