Abstract
A method for access authentication includes receiving a facial recognition picture from a mobile electronic apparatus of a user. The facial recognition picture is compared to a stored facial recognition picture of the user. If a positive match exists, an authorization key is transmitted to a locking mechanism. The stored facial recognition picture can include a picture stored on a picture database populated by each transmitted facial recognition picture. In certain embodiments, the facial recognition picture can be retrieved from on a social media account.
