SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR BIOMETRICALLY AUTHENTICATING A USER USING AUTHENTICATION DATA AND LIVENESS DATA
First Claim
1. A biometric authentication system, comprising:
- a finger scanner for capturing biometric data from a plurality of sections of a finger of a user, the finger including a distal section, a medial section, and a proximal section; and
one or more processors configured to;
cause the finger scanner to capture the biometric data from the plurality of sections of the finger of the user, wherein the biometric data includes authentication data and liveness data;
access registered authentication data associated with the user;
determine whether the captured authentication data matches the registered authentication biometric data;
determine, using the captured liveness data, whether the finger is a live finger; and
authenticate the user after the captured authentication data is determined to match the registered authentication data and after the finger is determined to be a live finger.

Abstract
Systems and methods for biometrically authenticating a user are disclosed. In one implementation, a biometric authentication system may include a finger scanner for capturing biometric data from a plurality of sections of a finger of a user. The finger may include a distal section, a medial section, and a proximal section. The biometric authentication system may further include one or more processors configured to cause the finger scanner to capture the biometric data from the plurality of sections of the finger of the user. The biometric data may include authentication data and liveness data. The processors may be further configured to access registered authentication data associated with the user, determine whether the captured authentication data matches the authentication biometric data, and determining, using the captured liveness data, whether the finger is a live finger. Additionally, the processors may be configured to authenticate the user after the captured authentication data is determined to match the registered authentication data and after the finger is determined to be a live finger.

8. A method for biometrically authenticating a user, the method comprising:
-
capturing biometric data from a plurality of sections of a finger of a user, the finger including a distal section, a medial section, and a proximal section, and the biometric data including authentication data and liveness data; accessing registered authentication data associated with the user; determining whether the captured authentication data matches the registered authentication biometric data; determining, using the captured liveness data, whether the finger is a live finger; and authenticating the user after the captured authentication data is determined to match the registered authentication data and after the finger is determined to be a live finger. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that when executed by a computer cause the computer to perform a method for biometrically authenticating a user, the method comprising:
-
capturing biometric data from a plurality of sections of a finger of a user, the finger including a distal section, a medial section, and a proximal section, and the biometric data including authentication data and liveness data; accessing registered authentication data associated with the user; determining whether the captured authentication data matches the registered authentication biometric data; determining, using the captured liveness data, whether the finger is a live finger; and authenticating the user after the captured authentication data is determined to match the registered authentication data and after the finger is determined to be a live finger. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
