Abstract

A user verification system is configured to identify likely interactors approaching points of interaction to ensure accurate interactions and to provide loyalty rewards. In an example, a interaction system installs a user verification device with a stereo camera at an interacting device to capture images of the user and to obtain data from the device. The user verification device uses the stereo camera to determine the location of the user to determine if the user is a likely interactor. The user verification device recognizes motions of the user that are indicative of an interactor, such as reaching across the counter or looking at the operator. The user verification device identifies or verifies the interactor based on the record data or the display data. If the user is the likely interactor, then the system conducts a hands-free interaction with the user account or provides loyalty rewards to the user account.
