Abstract
Within a vehicle, and at a border crossing, a verification device enables unsupervised or automatic biometric authentication of subjects (i.e., persons or travelers) moving between secured areas (e.g., across a border or into a secured facility, for example). Verification device is configured to store reference biometric information for one or more vehicle occupants. Upon approaching a verification station at a border crossing, user(s) supply one or more biometrics (e.g., fingerprint, facial recognition, voice recognition) for validation against the reference biometric information. Upon validation, verification device transmits a validated signal to the verification station to enable the vehicle to pass the border crossing without stopping at the immigration booth. For example, the receipt of a validated signal may trigger the opening of a gate at a border crossing. If verification device cannot validate the user's biometric against the reference biometric information, the verification device may transmit a not-validated signal to the verification station, and the user proceeds to stop at the immigration booth.
