BIOMETRICS INFORMATION MATCHING APPARATUS, BIOMETRICS INFORMATION MATCHING SYSTEM, BIOMETRICS INFORMATION MATCHING METHOD, PERSON AUTHENTICATION APPARATUS, AND PERSON AUTHENTICATION METHOD
First Claim
1. A biometrics information matching apparatus comprising:
- a biometrics information obtaining unit that obtains biometrics information of an occupant;
a communicating unit that receives biometrics information stored in a terminal device by communicating with the terminal device, or biometrics information obtained by the terminal device;
a matching unit that matches the biometrics information obtained by the biometrics information obtaining unit with the biometrics information received by the communicating unit; and
an association setting unit that specifies that the terminal device is a terminal device of the occupant when two pieces of biometrics information match each other as a result of matching by the matching unit.

Abstract
An occupant authentication apparatus is incorporated in a vehicle. The occupant authentication apparatus includes a communication processor, a biometric-data obtaining unit, a matching unit, and an association processor. The biometric-data obtaining unit obtains biometric data of an occupant of the vehicle. The communication processor communicates with a portable terminal device, and receives biometric data held by the portable terminal device. The matching unit matches the biometric data of the occupant obtained by the biometric-data obtaining unit with the biometric data that the communication processor receives from the portable terminal device. When the obtained biometric data matches the received biometric data, the association processor associates the occupant (or a seat position of the occupant), from whom the biometric data is obtained, with the portable terminal device, from which the biometric data is received.
