VISIT VERIFICATION METHOD AND SYSTEM

摘要

The invention relates to a system and method for tracking clients as they visit the locations of various recipients. Clients (110A, 110B) are provided with access to telephones (112, 114) and identification devices which the client uses to communicate with a remote computer (126). Information is communicated as to the clients location, the time of the visit to that location information may be provided by automatic number identification, wireless phone location information, or a global position device. The computer uses information communication received during the communication to identify and authenticate the client making the communication and the location of the client at the time of the communication. Authentication is accomplished by obtaining unique biometric parameters from a client and comparing those to biometrics parameters in a database. Biometrics data can include a voice print sample, or a finger or retinal print electronically transmitted to the remote computer. Because each of these identifiers result from a physiological characteristic which is unique to the client, the system assures that the identified client is the client making the communication.
