  • Biometric verification of ticket users
    Patent number: 10515320
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for validating a ticket based on biometric data provided by a ticket holding user. A ticket controller device broadcasts an inquiry frame specifying a request for authentication data for a ticket user requesting access to a service hosted by the ticket controller. A mobile device may receive the inquiry frame and generate a response frame encapsulating a ticket identifier and biometric data associated with a user. The ticket controller receives the response frame including the ticket identifier and the biometric data. Upon determining that the ticket identifier and the biometric data encapsulated in the response frame matches a stored ticket identifier and biometric data, the ticket controller grants the user access to the service.
