A computer-implemented method leverages the capabilities present in common mobile communications devices—RF transceivers, Internet connectivity, payment system, geolocation system, notification system, and user interface—to simplify and reduce overhead from the parking experience. Furthermore, this method utilizes distributed authentication and authorization and multi-path queued message delivery to provide this experience when cellular or WiFi Internet connectivity is absent in the parking facility, simplifying and reducing the cost of deployment.

Embodiments of the present invention disclose an information identification code-based information authentication method, a terminal, and a computer storage medium. The method includes: generating an information identification code, the information identification code carrying a first identifier used for representing a user identity and a second identifier used for representing a generation time of the information identification code; and initiating, by a first terminal, or receiving, from the first terminal, a first request according to the information identification code, to request a second terminal to perform identity authentication on the first terminal to satisfy a target requirement.

An information processing apparatus in the present invention includes: an acquisition unit that acquires first history information indicating that a procedure related to boarding of a passenger in an airport was performed with biometric authentication and second history information indicating that the procedure was performed with reading of a medium; and an output unit that outputs usage status of the biometric authentication in the procedure based on the first history information and the second history information.

When attending an event at a venue, the attendee typically presents ticket information that is scanned by a venue scanner. The process associated with scanning can be dispensed with, which can improve attendee experiences, reduce costs associated with managing a venue, as well as other advantages. For example, instead of scanning a ticket at a point of ingress to the venue, a device of the user can self-scan the ticket, and then present indicia that indicates this process has occurred. The indicia can be presented to a guest services representative, who can verify that a valid ticket was redeemed by merely observing the indicia and without scanning.

The present invention is directed towards an electronic ticket suitable for providing entry to an event. The electronic ticket is capable of being stored, in electronic format, on a mobile user device. The electronic ticket comprises a dynamic entry code for the event such that the dynamic entry code is transitionable from an inoperable state to a functional state, whereby entry to the event is only possible when the dynamic entry code has been transitioned to the functional state. The dynamic entry code is a visual code which is non-readable by humans and is stored in a memory of the mobile user device, such that the inoperable state of the dynamic entry code prohibits the visual code from being displayed by the mobile user device and the functional state of the dynamic entry code permits the visual code to be displayed by the mobile user. The advantage of providing the dynamic entry code is that the electronic ticket can hide the entry code until close to the event start time so that a ticket tout will find it difficult to sell the ticket on as a purchaser would have less confidence in buying a ticket which does not display the entry code required for admission. Moreover, a ticket fraudster cannot duplicate the ticket.
