  • Secure Electronic Ticketing using Mobile Communication Devices over the Internet
    Publication number: 20120221474
    Abstract: The invention consists of a method and system for secure mobile ticketing through the use of a mobile device with display output and data input capabilities. The system utilizes a cryptographic security string appended to a URL and embedded in a 2D barcode to securely create an electronic ticket which is displayed on the mobile device display for redemption, redeem the displayed electronic ticket by means of optical scanning, and optionally register and authenticate a ticket scanning unit. The system utilizes real-time internet communication with a remote server for ticket distribution, redemption and ticket scanning unit registration and authentication to restrict unauthorized creation or redemption of electronic tickets and to reduce queuing.
