LOCKING APPARATUS WITH ENHANCED SECURITY USING IRIS IMAGE

摘要

The present invention relates to a locking apparatus with enhanced security using an iris image, wherein, if a terminal including a short-range wireless communication means and camera accesses the locking apparatus, the locking apparatus: transmits, a token comprising at least one of identification number and/or random number of the locking apparatus from a token generator mounted on the locking apparatus, to the terminal; requests an iris image be photographed and transmitted within a preset time period; generates an iris template from the iris image photographed by a camera fixed on the user terminal; encrypts and transmits the generated iris template and the token from the terminal to the locking apparatus using short-range wireless communication; and performs at least one of access permission (lock release), access denial (a maintenance of a locked state), a request for re-photographing, and an emergency alarm by decrypting the received encrypted iris template and token using a decoder mounted on the locking apparatus, and comparing the similarity thereof with an iris template registered and stored in a database in advance.

主权项

1. A locking apparatus having enhanced security using an iris image, comprising:
short-range wireless communication means for transmitting and receiving information for authentication to the locking apparatus and a terminal; means for registering and storing information about a visitor in a database or memory of the locking apparatus; means for sending an Iris image obtained by a camera fixedly installed at the terminal or an iris template generated from the iris image to the locking apparatus through short-range wireless communication; and means for determining similarity between the iris image received from the terminal or an iris template generated from the received iris image and an iris image registered with the locking apparatus or an iris template generated from the registered iris image and for performing one or more of lock release, a maintenance of a locked state, a request for re-photographing, and an emergency alarm based on a result of the determination.
