Systems and methods for authenticating a user based on a biometric model associated with the user
First Claim
1. A system for authenticating a user, comprising:
- one or more processors configured to;
determine a biometric model of the user including at least a distance from a joint of a finger of the user, a length of a finger of the user, or a range of motion of a finger of the user;
generate at least one challenge;
determine an expected response based on the determined biometric model and the generated challenge; and
determine if a received response matches the expected response within a predetermined degree of accuracy;
a biometric sensor configured to receive the response;
a memory, the memory storing the determined biometric model; and
a network interface component coupled to a network, the network interface component configured to transmit a successful authentication when the received response matches the expected response within a predetermined degree of accuracy.

Abstract
Systems and methods as provided herein may create a biometric model associated with a user. The created biometric model may be used to generate challenges that are presented to the user for authentication purposes. A user response to the challenge may be compared to an expected response, and if the user response matches within a predetermined error of the expected response, the user may be authenticated. The systems and methods may further generate challenges that are adaptively designed to address weaknesses or errors in the created model such that the model is more closely associated with a user and the user is more likely to be the only person capable of successfully responding to the generated challenges.

10. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions for execution by one or more processors that, when executed, cause the one or more processors to perform a method for authenticating a user, the method comprising:
-
determining a biometric model of the user including at least a distance from a joint of a finger of the user, a length of a finger of the user, or a range of motion of a finger of the use; storing the determined biometric model; generating at least one challenge in response to a request for authentication; determining an expected response based on the stored model and the generated at least one challenge; and transmitting a successful authentication when a received response matches the expected response within a predetermined degree of accuracy. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A system for authenticating a user, comprising:
-
one or more processors configured to; determine a biometric model of the user; generate at least one challenge, the at least one challenge requires the user to position a biometric identifier in alignment with a graphical instruction that comprises at least one of a displayed hand motion and a timer indicating how long the user has left to respond to the challenge; determine an expected response based on the determined biometric model and the generated challenge; and determine if a received response matches the expected response within a predetermined degree of accuracy; a biometric sensor configured to receive the response; a display component configured to display the graphical instruction; an indicator configured to provide an indication of when the alignment is complete that comprises at least one of the displayed hand motion and a generated audible command; a memory, the memory storing the determined biometric model; and a network interface component coupled to a network, the network interface component configured to transmit a successful authentication when the received response matches the expected response within a predetermined degree of accuracy.
