Abstract
A method and system of performing an authentication of an identity of a person with visual impairments. The system and method are configured to cause a wearable secondary computing device worn by a guide dog accompanying the person to generate a verification signal. This verification signal can be evaluated to determine whether the verification signal is authentic and/or includes an expected biometric data feature. If the verification signal is deemed to be authentic, the system can verify an identity of the person, and can further be configured to automatically grant the person access to one or more services, features, or information for which the person is authorized.
