Some implementations provide a method that includes: generating an association, at a mobile device, between a government-issued identification document of a user and a mode of payment; receiving, at the mobile device, a presentation of the government-issued identification document of the user to support a request for payment; validating whether the presented government-issued identification document is a valid identification of the user; and in response to validating the presented government-issued identification document, proceeding with payment by using the mode of payment.

System and method for transaction authentication

Some implementations may include a computer-assisted method for authenticating a person at a point of service, the method including: receiving a digital identification document including a digital biometric of the person and a digital watermark, the digital watermark encoding personally identifiable information of the person; retrieving the digital watermark from the received digital identification document; extracting the personally identifiable information from the retrieved digital watermark; and authenticating the person identified by the digital biometric based on the retrieved digital watermark.

Digital identification document

Some implementations may provide a method that includes: receiving, at a mobile device, data encoding a first digital watermark present on the identification document; extracting a first portion of personally identifiable information encoded by a spatial luminance pattern associated with the first digital watermark; receiving, at a mobile device, data encoding a second digital watermark present on the identification document; extracting a second portion of personally identifiable information encoded by a spatial luminance pattern associated with the first digital watermark; and validating the identification document based on at least one of the first portion of personally identifiable information or the second portion of personally identifiable information.

System and method for digital watermarking

Some implementations may include a method for watermarking an identification document, the method including: modulating a spatial luminance pattern associated with a first digital watermark to encode a first portion of personally identifiable information; modulating a spatial chrominance distribution associated with a second digital watermark to encode a second portion of the personally identifiable information; and applying the first digital watermark and the second digital watermark to the identification document.

System and method for digitally watermarking digital facial portraits

In some implementations, a computer-implemented method and system for enrolling customers into a digital identification program may include obtaining, from a digital identification database, customer information that describes a customer, providing to the customer device an access code for activation, receiving a request from the customer device for the digital identification, where the request includes the access code and customer information that describes the customer, providing a request for secure information that describes the customer from a secure information database, receiving the secure information that describes the customer stored in the secure information database, generating the digital identification for the customer based on the secure information and the customer information, and providing the digital identification to the customer device.

Digital identification enrollment

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for identifying, by a computer system, at least one line of a plurality of lines that are disposed at a first layer of a card; providing, by the computer system and based on the identified at least one line, control signals to a laser device of the computer system, the control signals indicating coordinates for the identified at least one line; generating, by the laser device and based on the control signals, one or more line patterns that are embedded at a particular layer of the card.

Line segment code for embedding information in an image

Some implementations provide a machine-assisted method for screening a person, the method including: receiving, at a scanning device, an identification document presented by the person, the identification document showing a machine-readable code that encodes personally identifiable information of the person, a biometric of the person, and printed information; scanning the machine-readable code on the identification document to extract personally identifiable information of the person; comparing the extracted personally identifiable information against records stored at a database; determining that the extracted personal identifiable information matches a record stored at the database; receiving data encoding the biometric of the person on the identification document for comparison with the person presenting the identification document; receiving a determination that the biometric from the identification document identifies the person presenting the identification document; and determining whether the identification document is digitally watermarked to identify payload data.

System and method for credential authentication

Some implementations may include a method for watermarking an identification document, the method including: receiving a digitally watermarked digital facial portrait of the person, the digital facial portrait embedded with at least one digital watermark identifying payload data linking the digital facial portrait to the person portrayed in the digital facial portrait; receiving results of comparison between the digital facial portrait of the person and the person presenting the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait; retrieving the at least one digital watermark in response to receiving comparison results that the person portrayed in the digital facial portrait is the person presenting the digitally watermarked digital facial portrait; and determining that the digital facial portrait is authentic based on the retrieved at least one digital watermark.

A steganographic-based ordering system and method using a digital identification (ID) are described. A user may obtain a digital ID card on a user device and select modes for interacting with the vendor. Using the digital ID, the user can create a personal profile that indicates the user's preferences, and place an order for an item (e.g., a product or service) through the digital ID. The order may be steganographically-embedded along with user data within the digital ID. The digital ID including the steganographically-em bedded order is transmitted to a digital ID reader located at the vendor. When completing an order for the user, the digital ID reader may de-embed user and order data from the received digital ID to obtain information about the user and provide more personalized service to complete the order.

Steganographic-based system and method using digital identification

Some implementations may include a computer-assisted method for digitizing an identification document, the method including: receiving a digital biometric of a subject; applying the received digital biometric to a digital identification document; applying a digital watermark to the digital identification document, the digital watermark encoding personally identifiable information of the subject identified by the digital biometric; and generating the digital identification document with the applied digital watermark, the digital identification document comprising both the digital watermark and the digital biometric.

Some implementations may provide a method for generating a portrait of a subject for an identification document, the method including: receiving a photo image of the subject, the photo image including the subject's face in a foreground against an arbitrary background; determining the arbitrary background of the photo image based on the photo image alone and without user intervention; masking the determined background from the photo image; and subsequently generating the portrait of the subject for the identification document of the subject, the portrait based on the photo image with the determined background masked.
