Abstract: A method comprises transferring information that includes a response uniform resource locator (URL) between a primary device and a secondary device using a primary communication channel between the primary device and the secondary device; determining, using the secondary device, status of connectivity of a network separate from the primary communication channel; transmitting, by the secondary device, a response to a request from the primary device via the network using the response URL when the status indicates the network is available, and transmitting the response via the primary communication channel when the status indicates the network is unavailable.

Abstract: Providing virtualized credentials of a license holder includes determining contextual data that governs visual information presented on a display and displaying credential data on the display, where visual characteristics of the credential data that is displayed varies according to the contextual data. The display may be a display on a device of the license holder or a display on a device that is viewable by a relying party. The visual characteristics may be modified according to a location of at least some of the credential data on the display on the device of the license holder, a particular font used, a particular color used for text, a color scheme of an existing image and/or a specific image that is independent of the credential data. The visual characteristics may be modified according to the color scheme by changing a background color on the screen of the device of the license holder.

Abstract: A system is disclosed that includes an identity server that is configured to build, manage, augment, and assert a user's identity. The identity server may also be configured to manage attestations for the user's identity.

Abstract: Various systems and methods for using credentials are described herein. In an example, the system is configured to generate and issue electronic credentials that may include aggregate credentials from various issuers. In another example, a query statement is used to express relationships between credential data elements and obtain a subset of data corresponding to the query.

Abstract: A computing device implemented method of identity authentication comprises receiving a biometric token; performing a biometric capture of a user; converting the biometric capture into a biometric bitstream; recovering a predictable seed of data using the biometric bitstream and the biometric token; using the recovered predictable seed of data to produce challenge response data sent to a verifier device in response to a challenge message received from the verifier device; and verifying the challenge response data using identity data of the user.

Abstract: Various systems and methods for managing identity credentials on a mobile device are described herein. A verifier device may perform operations including receiving one or more data elements associated with a credential, wherein the data elements are signed with a signature associated with an issuer of the data elements, analyzing the signature to determine a confidence score, the confidence score enumerated into a plurality of confidence levels, configuring a verification process based on the confidence score, and executing the verification process.

Abstract: Techniques for using additive manufacturing for applying personalization or serialization information to a substrate are described herein. The techniques may include providing a base substrate formed from a first material such as polyvinyl chloride, polyester, or polycarbonate and applying, via an additive manufacturing process such as three-dimensional printing, a layer to at least a portion of the base substrate. The layer can include at least one of personalization or serialization information. The layer can be formed from the same material as the substrate or formed from a second material with substantially similar material properties as the substrate material.

Abstract: Disclosed is an ink comprising a transparent matrix being UV curable and heat scalable, and at least one pigment component. The ink in its UV-cured state has a peel strength in the range of about 6 to 8 N/cm, wherein this adhesiveness is achievable by means of a further lamination step under the influence of pressure and heat so that the ink acts as a hot glue. Further disclosed is a safety structure comprising a semitransparent layer being formed at least partially by the UV-cured ink, and a secure article comprising the safety structure. Further disclosed is a use of the ink for silkscreen printing.

Abstract: Providing virtualized credential information includes determining whether a relying party device has access to a network/cloud infrastructure that contains at least some of the credential information, a license holder device providing the virtualized credential information directly to the relying party device in response to the relying party device not having access to the network/cloud infrastructure, and displaying at least some of the subset of credential data on a screen of the device of the relying party. Providing virtualized credential information may also include the license holder device providing authorization data to the relying party device in response to the relying party device having access to the network/cloud infrastructure and determining a preference for the relying party device to receive at least some of the virtualized credential information from the network/cloud infrastructure.

Abstract: A laser engraving apparatus (100) is calibrated using a number of predetermined calibration images (12). The calibration images (12) are engraved on a predefined substrate surface (14, 15) of a substrate (16) by varying only a single laser parameter. Based on measured colour values of the engraved calibration images, a relationship between said colour values and a predefined laser parameter value, for example, a predefined laser power, is established. This relationship is then used to generate a map for mapping a grayscale value of an input image to a grayscale value of an output image, which is then engraved on the substrate (16) while varying the same laser parameter that was varied during the calibration.

Abstract: A method for building a security image for a security structure of a security document from multiplexing color images, including selecting a marking method capable of producing sets of colors on the security document comprising different colors that can be displayed according to illumination/observation modes of the security structure, establishing a plurality of color sets that can be displayed by the security structure in a plurality of the different illumination/observation modes, distributing the color sets in a plurality of groups of color sets, establishing combinations of groups of color sets having at least one color set in common across the number of different illumination/observation modes, selecting a combination of a group of color sets based on the number of desired illumination/observation modes and the number of colors per color image, and determining the color images to multiplex by means of the combination of the group of color sets selected.
