Biometrics with mental/physical state determination methods and systems
First Claim
1. A method determining whether a particular individual is to be granted authority, comprising:
- performing multiple biometrics tests on the individual to retrieve multiple biometrics test results;
performing at least a first data fusion operation on the multiple biometrics test results to determine an identity result, wherein the first data fusion operation includes weighting the multiple biometrics test results and applying a threshold to the weighted test results to determine the identity result;
performing at least one biological state test to determine one or more biological state test results of the individual; and
conditionally granting authority to the individual based on the identity result and the one or more biological state results.

Abstract
Methods and systems for determining whether a particular individual is to be granted, among other things, access to information, access to a particular room or other space, or permission to perform a given act or transaction are disclosed. For example, disclosed is an exemplary method that includes performing multiple biometrics tests on the individual to retrieve multiple biometrics test results, performing at least a first data fusion operation on the multiple biometrics test results to determine an identity result, performing at least one biological state test to determine one or more biological state test results of the individual, and conditionally granting authority to the individual based on the identity result and the one or more biological state results.

13. A system for determining whether a particular individual is to be granted authority, comprising:
-
identity sensing circuitry configured to perform multiple biometrics tests on the individual to retrieve multiple biometrics test results; identity fusion circuitry configured to perform at least a first data fusion operation on the multiple biometrics test results to determine an identity result, wherein the first data fusion operation includes weighting the multiple biometrics test results and applying a threshold to the weighted test results to determine the identity result; biological state sensing circuitry configured to perform at least one biological state test; biological state processing circuitry configured to determine one or more biological state test results of the individual based on the at least one biological state test; and decision circuitry configured to grant authority to the individual based on the identity result and the one or more biological state results. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

21. A system for determining whether a particular individual is to be granted authority, comprising:
-
a biometrics test means for performing multiple biometrics tests on the individual to retrieve multiple biometrics test results; a biometrics processing means for performing at least a first data fusion operation on the multiple biometrics test results to determine an identity result, wherein the first data fusion operation includes weighting the multiple biometrics test results and applying a threshold to the weighted test results to determine the identity result; a biological state test means for performing at least one biological state test; a biological state processing means for determining one or more biological state test results of the individual based on the at least one biological state test; and a decision means for conditionally granting authority to the individual based on the identity result and the one or more biological state results.
