System and method for digitally watermarking digital facial portraits
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method for generating a digitally watermarked digital facial portrait, the method comprising:
- receiving a digital facial portrait of a subject;
applying at least one digital watermark to the digital facial portrait, the at least one digital watermark encoding non-biometric personally identifiable information or palm-print information that identifies the subject whose face is portrayed in the digital facial portrait;
generating a digitally watermarked digital facial portrait as a machine-readable code in which the at least one digital watermark is embedded into the digital facial portrait such that when the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait is presented on a mobile computing device of the subject, the subject presenting the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait is authenticatable by having the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait scanned such that (i) the non-biometric personally identifiable information or the palm-print information is retrieved from the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait; and
(ii) the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait is authenticated based on the non-biometric personally identifiable information or a palm-print information, andsuspending or revoking the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait by removing the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait from a mobile computing device of the subject.

Abstract
Some implementations may include a method for watermarking an identification document, the method including: modulating a spatial luminance pattern associated with a first digital watermark to encode a first portion of personally identifiable information; modulating a spatial chrominance distribution associated with a second digital watermark to encode a second portion of the personally identifiable information; and applying the first digital watermark and the second digital watermark to the identification document.

15. A system for generating a digitally watermarked digital facial portrait, the system comprising:
-
at least one processor; and
a data store coupled to the at least one processor having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to perform operations comprising;receiving a digital facial portrait of a subject; applying at least one digital watermark to the digital facial portrait, the at least one digital watermark encoding non-biometric personally identifiable information or palm-print information that identifies the subject whose face is portrayed in the digital facial portrait; generating a digitally watermarked digital facial portrait as a machine-readable code in which the at least one digital watermark is embedded into the digital facial portrait such that when the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait is presented on a mobile computing device of the subject, the subject presenting the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait is authenticatable by having the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait scanned such that (i) the non-biometric personally identifiable information or the palm-print information is retrieved from the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait; and
(ii) the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait is authenticated based on the non-biometric personally identifiable information or a palm-print information, andsuspending or revoking the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait by removing the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait from a mobile computing device of the subject. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 19)

18. A non-transitory computer-readable medium, comprising information encoding a digitally watermarked digital facial portrait of a subject, the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait generated by:
-
receiving a digital facial portrait of a subject; applying at least one digital watermark to the digital facial portrait, the at least one digital watermark encoding non-biometric personally identifiable information or palm-print information that identifies the subject whose face is portrayed in the digital facial portrait; generating a digitally watermarked digital facial portrait as a machine-readable code in which the at least one digital watermark is embedded into the digital facial portrait such that when the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait is presented on a mobile computing device of the subject, the subject presenting the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait is authenticatable by having the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait scanned such that (i) the non-biometric personally identifiable information or the palm-print information is retrieved from the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait; and
(ii) the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait is authenticated based on the non-biometric personally identifiable information or a palm-print information, andsuspending or revoking the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait by removing the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait from a mobile computing device of the subject. - View Dependent Claims (20)
