Publication number: 20240046732Abstract: An identification system uses a local cache for performing identifications. An identity system device may store identity information and identification information. An electronic device stores a cache of a portion of the identity information and a part of the identification information. The electronic device receives user input, determines an identity by comparing the user input to the cached identification information (such as by comparing a received digital representation of a biometric with cached biometric identification information), and performs an action using information in the cached identity information that is associated with the identity. The electronic device may update the identity information stored by the identity system device based on the action.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 17, 2023Publication date: February 8, 2024Inventor: Rob Wisniewski

Publication number: 20230386250Abstract: Biometric gallery management is performed by association one or more wireless identifiers that correspond to one or more mobile devices (such as smart phones, tablet computing devices, cellular telephones, wearable devices, smart watches, fitness monitors, digital media players, medical devices, and/or other mobile computing devices) that people carry with digital representations of biometrics corresponding to the people. Wireless identifiers corresponding to mobile devices proximate to a biometric reader device may be monitored. Upon detection of wireless identifiers corresponding to mobile devices proximate to the biometric reader device, the associated digital representations of biometrics may be loaded from a main gallery into one or more local galleries, which may then be used to perform one or more biometric identifications and/or verifications.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 12, 2023Publication date: November 30, 2023Inventor: Rob Wisniewski

Publication number: 20230362003Abstract: A system performs digital notarization using a biometric identification service. A signature requesting service receives a request to validate a digital item with a signature for a person. The signature requesting service provides a payload that identifies the digital item and/or the person to an identity service. The identity service obtains one or more digital representations of biometrics for the person, determines an identity for the person, and returns a data structure including the payload and one or more identity attestations regarding the determined identity. The identity service encrypts at least a portion of the data structure using a private encryption key. A public encryption key for the identity service can then be used to decrypt the portion to verify that the data structure was generated by the identity service after determining the identity. In this way, validation can be verified to the full trust level of the identification service.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 6, 2023Publication date: November 9, 2023Inventor: Rob Wisniewski

Patent number: 11810028Abstract: A system receives a digital representation of a biometric for a person, uses the digital representation of the biometric to determine and/or otherwise retrieve identity information associated with the person, and uses the identity information to perform one or more actions related to the person's presence in one or more areas. For example, the system may estimate a path for the person and signal an agent electronic device based on the path. In another example, the system may determine a presence of a person within the area and/or transmit information to an agent electronic device regarding the determined presence. In still another example, the system may receive a request to communicate with the person and forward the communication to the person using the identity information.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2022Date of Patent: November 7, 2023Assignee: ALCLEAR, LLCInventors: Joe Trelin, Matthew Snyder, Rob Wisniewski

Patent number: 11775885Abstract: A hardware system enables computer network interaction between network identity services and account-based service applications. In some examples, the network identity service biometrically identifies people. The network identity services and/or account-based service applications interact to exchange data in order to monitor, track, initiate, and/or cooperatively and/or individually perform various functions while protecting data that should not be shared and minimizing communication network usage and hardware and software resources. This interaction enables both to accomplish more and different tasks than they could individually while improving operational efficiency of hardware and software components of both.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2023Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: ALCLEAR, LLCInventor: Rob Wisniewski

Publication number: 20230153242Abstract: An identification station is operable to obtain digital representations of biometrics for people and communicate these digital representations of biometrics over one or more networks to an identification system device in order to identify the people for a variety of different purposes. The identification station also stores data related to previous biometric identifications in a local cache for one or more time windows. Upon obtaining a digital representation of a biometric, the identification station may first check if the digital representation of the biometric corresponds to data in the local cache. If so, the identification station may omit communicating with the identification system device. Otherwise, the identification station may communicate with the identification system device to identify the person, as well as store the digital representation of the biometric in the local cache for the one or more time windows.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 12, 2021Publication date: May 18, 2023Inventor: Rob Wisniewski

Publication number: 20230102587Abstract: A distributed identity system with local identification includes an identity system device and at least one local electronic device. The local electronic device locally stores at least a portion of identity information and the biometric identification information stored by the identity system device. The local electronic device determines identities by comparing received digital representations of biometrics with locally stored biometric identification information, performs actions using locally stored identity information included in the local copy, and uploads data related to the actions to the identity system device upon occurrence of an upload condition.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 5, 2022Publication date: March 30, 2023Inventor: Rob Wisniewski
