1. A system for continuously verifying the identity of a person being tested, comprising:
- an identity testing unit for carrying out an initial identification test to identify a person and subsequent identification tests at random intervals over a testing duration, therefrom to build an identification profile covering said duration;
at least one physiological testing unit for performing at least one physiological test on said person being identified over said duration of said identification tests, said physiological test being selected randomly from a group of physiological tests;
an interpretation unit for evaluating the results of said identification test to obtain an identification profile of the person being tested over said duration and for evaluating the results of said at least one physiological test performed over said duration;
a storage unit for storing said identification profile and said at least one physiological test result; and
a comparison unit for comparing identification data of said initial and subsequent identification tests of said identification profile.

5. A method for continuously verifying the identity of a person performing a task randomly selected from a group of tasks, the method comprising the steps of:
-
creating and storing an initial profile of personal characteristics associated with the person, prior to performing the randomly selected task;
continuously performing at least one identification test at random intervals while the person performs said randomly selected task;
storing the results of each of said randomly performed at least one identification test;
comparing the results of each of said randomly performed at least one identification test with the initial profile and with previous randomly performed identification tests after each randomly performed at least one identification test; and
evaluating a result of said randomly selected task. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
if the results of said automatic comparison match the at least one identification test with the initial profile, allow the person to perform said randomly selected task.
-
-
7. A method according to claim 5 and further comprising the step of:
comparing the initial profile of personal characteristics with a database of personal characteristics of a group of persons to ascertain the identity of the person.
-
8. A method according to claim 5 wherein said profile comprises at least one of a group comprising voice recognition patterns, iris patterns and photographic images.
-
9. A method according to claim 5 wherein said step of determining an initial identification profile comprises:
-
identifying the person to be tested;
performing at least one identification test;
evaluating the results of said at least one identification test to obtain the initial identification profile; and
storing said results for later retrieval.
-
-
10. A method according to claim 5 wherein said randomly selected task comprises one of a group of tasks for testing a person'"'"'s alertness, steadiness, co-ordination and response time.
-
11. A method according to claim 9 wherein said at least one randomly selected task comprises one of a group of tasks for testing a person'"'"'s alertness, steadiness, co-ordination and response time.
-
12. A method according to claim 9 and further comprising the step of evaluating said tasks in relation to said stored results.
-
13. A method according to claim 5 wherein said step of evaluating is operable in real time or off-line.
-
14. A method according to claim 5 wherein said step of evaluating comprises the step of determining whether a person is under the influence of external substances or stimulants.
-
15. A method according to claim 5 wherein said step of evaluating comprises the step of evaluating the results of the randomly selected tasks individually and/or in any combination of tasks.
-
16. A method according to claim 5 wherein said at least one identification test comprises at least one of a group of tests including photographing the attending person at random intervals, requesting the person to respond to various random questions, iris recognition, palm, fingerprint or face pattern recognition.
-
17. A method for continuously verifying the identity of a person performing a selected task, the method comprising the steps of:
-
selecting a task from a group of tasks;
creating and storing an initial profile of personal characteristics associated with the person prior to performing the task;
performing at least one identification test at random intervals while the person performs said task;
storing the results of each of said randomly performed said at least one identification test;
evaluating results of said task; and
comparing the results of each of said randomly performed at least one identification test with the initial profile at the completion of said task. - View Dependent Claims (18)
