  • Publication number: 20060253710
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a biometric information recognition credit card system and credit card scanner. The biometric information of a credit card holder is scanned when using a credit card. The scanned biometric information is compared with separately stored biometric information. A part of the biometric information may be stored in the credit card. A credit card scanner transmits the biometric information and credit card information to a server only when the part of the biometric information stored in the credit card and the part of the scanned biometric information are identical with each other. A separated biometric information management center separately stores the biometric information of each credit card holder. When the separately stored biometric information and the scanned biometric information are identical with each other, the use of the credit card is approved.

An user registers his linger print to the enabled card key. The user inputs his finger print to the card key whenever he wants to open a lock. The card key transmits the finger print codes of administrators to the lock when the inputted finger print matches the registered finger print of the user. The lock compares the received finger print codes with the registered finger print codes. When any of the received codes matches any of the registered linger print codes, the lock is opened.
