Abstract: An encryption/decryption system to provide a means for user authentication and document authentication using face biometrics. The encryption/decryption system comprises a key storage means for storing a plurality of keys, a face authentication means for determining whether a prospective user of a key in the plurality of keys is the associated user of the key, an encryption/decryption means for encrypting and decrypting data using the plurality of keys when the face authentication means authenticates the prospective user, and a document authentication means that authenticates the user for access to their plurality of keys to digitally sign a document and display the users face used to authenticate access to their plurality of keys in or associated with the document acting as a witness to the signing of the document.

Abstract: Embodiments provide, in at least one aspect, methods and systems that authenticate at least one face in at least one digital image using techniques to mitigate spoofing. For example, methods and systems trigger an image capture device to capture a sequence images of the user performing the sequence of one or more position requests based on the pitch and yaw movements. The methods and systems generate a series of face signatures for the sequence of images of the user performing the sequence of one or more position requests. The methods and systems compare the generated series of face signatures to stored face signatures corresponding to the requested sequence of the one or more position requests.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a medication adherence administration and monitoring system. An apparatus for managing medication adherence by a patient is provided, the apparatus comprising: a dispensing device configured for communication with a medication administration system, the dispensing device designed for dispensing medication stored within the dispensing device to the patient; a control system for controlling the dispensing device based, at least in part, on command instructions provided by the medication administration system, and issuing commands to dispense medication based on the satisfaction of one or more pre-determined conditions provided by the medication administration system; and an alert system configured for alerting the patient when medication should be dispensed and configured to receive an indication from the patient verifying the consumption of medication, the alert system communicating to the control system that the medication has been dispensed and consumed.

Abstract: A method, system and apparatus is provided for dispensing drugs quickly, conveniently, securely, and accurately and at relatively less cost than traditional pharmacy-based dispensing systems. A script for a drug prescribed to a user is generated comprising a human readable description of the drug and the user or a machine readable description of the drug and the user. The script is provided to a robotic prescription dispensary operable to recognize either the human readable description or the machine readable description, and validate and dispense the drug accordingly. The robotic prescription dispensary includes a user interface, a tele conferencing or video conferencing means enabling communication between the user and a human validation agent, and a scanning means for capturing an image of the script. A method for managing inventory and distribution of drugs is also provided.
