Abstract

The present disclosure facilitates gesture-based interaction with a computer-system. The method may comprise pairing a transaction account with a likeness, receiving the likeness and a transaction request based upon the location of a marker in three dimensional space, retrieving the transaction account paired with the likeness, and approving the transaction request at least partially based upon the transaction account and the likeness.

Claims

1. A method comprising:

receiving, by a computer-based system for gesture-based interaction, an image displayed by a mobile device; and

authenticating, by the computer-based system, an individual to a transaction account based upon the image.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising approving a transaction request based upon the transaction account.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the image comprises an image of a transaction instrument.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the image comprises an image of at least one of:

an account code, a name, an expiration date, a QR code, and a bar code.

5. The method of claim 1, further comprising pairing, by the computer-based system, an image of a likeness associated with the individual to the transaction account.

6. The method of claim 5, wherein a likeness comprises biometric data.

7. The method of claim 1, further comprising pairing, by the computer-based system, at least one of:

a personal identification number (PIN), a secret gesture, and a digital signature to the transaction account.

8. The method of claim 7, wherein the secret gesture comprises a plurality of images of a marker.

9. The method of claim 8, wherein a marker comprises at least one of:

the mobile device and a transaction instrument.

10. The method of claim 1, wherein the authenticating comprises:

retrieving, by the computer-based system and based upon the image, a secret gesture paired to the transaction account;

receiving, by the computer-based system, a secret gesture of the individual;

comparing, by the computer-based system, the secret gesture of the individual to the secret gesture paired to the transaction account; and

determining, by the computer-based system, that the secret gesture of the individual matches the secret gesture paired to the transaction account.

11. The method of claim 1, wherein authenticating comprises:

receiving, by the computer-based system, at least one of a personal identification number (PIN) and a digital signature associated with an individual;

retrieving, by the computer-based system and based upon the image, at least one of a PIN and a digital signature paired to the transaction account;

comparing, by the computer-based system, at least one of the PIN and the digital signature associated with the individual to at least one of the PIN and the digital signature paired to the transaction account; and

determining, by the computer-based system, that at least one of the PIN and the digital signature associated with the individual match at least one of the PIN and the digital signature paired to the transaction account.

12. The method of claim 1, wherein authenticating comprises:

receiving, by the computer-based system, an image of a likeness associated with the individual;

retrieving, by the computer-based system and based upon the image, an image of a likeness paired to the transaction account;

comparing, by the computer-based system, the image of the likeness associated with the individual to the image of the likeness paired to the transaction account; and

determining, by the computer-based system, that the image of the likeness associated with the individual matches the image of the likeness paired to the transaction account.

13. The method of claim 1, further comprising transmitting, by the computer-based system, an offer to a client based upon the image.

14. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

receiving, by the computer-based system, at least one of a secret gesture, a digital signature and a personal identification number (PIN); and

transmitting, by the computer-based system, an offer to a client based upon the at least one of the secret gesture, the digital signature, and the PIN.

15. The method of claim 1, further comprising populating, by the computer-based system, an online form in response to receiving the image.

16. The method of claim 1, further comprising rendering, by the computer-based system and on a client display, an icon associated with a marker in two dimensional space in response to a location of the marker in three dimensional space.

17. The method of claim 1 further comprising receiving, by the computer-based system, a transaction request based upon a motion of a marker in three dimensional space.

18. The method of claim 1, further comprising transmitting, by the computer-based system and to a client, two dimensional coordinates in response to a location of a marker in three dimensional space and html code associated with a website.

19. An article of manufacture including a non-transitory, tangible computer readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by a computer-based system for gesture-based interaction, cause the computer-based system to perform operations comprising:

receiving, by the computer-based system, an image displayed by a mobile device; and

authenticating, by the computer-based system, an individual to a transaction account based upon the image.

20. A system comprising:

a tangible, non-transitory memory communicating with a processor for gesture-based interaction,

the tangible, non-transitory memory having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising;

receiving, by the processor, an image displayed by a mobile device; and

authenticating, by the processor, an individual to a transaction account based upon the image.
