A passage permit device includes at least one memory storing instructions, and at least one processor. The at least one processor is configured to execute the instructions to, acquire image data including a user's face image captured by a predetermined imaging device, cause an authentication device configured to store facial feature information about the user to perform face authentication on the image data, acquire, if the face authentication is successful, proof information about the user subjected to the face authentication from a storage device configured to store the proof information related to measures taken the user to prevent from being infected, determine whether or not to permit the user to pass based on the proof information associated with the user, output a result of the determination to a predetermined terminal device corresponding to the imaging device.

Biometric features are derived from security data associated with a subject. The security data is obtained from a security device. A biometric value is calculated from the biometric features. The biometric value is anonymized to an identifier associated with the subject. The identifier is integrated with event data associated with a security system. In an embodiment, the security device is a Personal Identification Number (PIN) pad integrated into a transaction terminal, the security data is fingerprint data, which is read from a finger of the subject placed on a fingerprint reader integrated into the PIN pad, and the biometric value is a PIN calculated from fingerprint data during a transaction at the transaction terminal. In an embodiment, the security device is a security camera, the security data is a secure video stream, and the biometric features are facial features of the subject in the secure video stream.

A client device comprises a first secure element and a second secure element. The first secure element comprises a first computer-readable medium having a payment application comprising instructions for causing the client device to initiate a financial transaction. The second secure element comprises a second computer-readable medium having a security key, a payment instrument, stored authentication data and instructions for generating a secure payment information message responsive to the payment application. The secure payment information message comprises the payment instrument and is encrypted in accordance with the security key.

A mobile device is configured to wirelessly authenticate with a reader device. The mobile device may receive an acoustic signal from a user, and a command may be determined based on the acoustic signal. The mobile device may transmit the command to the reader device if the mobile device and the reader device are authenticated. The reader device may receive the command, and may analyze the command to determine an action to be performed. The reader device may then perform the action if the mobile device is authorized to request the command to be performed.

A gate apparatus includes an acquisition unit, a matching request unit, and a control unit. The acquisition unit acquires biological information about an examination target user. The matching request unit requests a server apparatus that stores biological information about users and MRZ (Machine Readable Zone) information written in machine readable zones in passports issued to the users in association with each other to perform matching on the biological information about the examination target user. The control unit controls a gate so that the examination target user can pass through the gate if information is successfully read out from an IC (Integrated Circuit) chip in a passport issued to the examination target user by using MRZ information determined by the matching.

An apparatus for collecting information communicating with a server and a collecting device includes scanning a bar code and transmit identification information of the apparatus to the server; the bar code is configured to link to a webpage of the server; acquiring biological characteristic information of a user of the apparatus collected by the collecting device; acquiring the identification information and the biological characteristic information matched by the server; and displaying the identification information and the biological characteristic information synchronized with the server. A method and a server for collecting information are also disclosed.

A method for purchasing goods, access authorizations or authorizations for using a service from a plurality of offered goods, access authorizations or authorizations for using a service. A defined spatial region is subdivided into defined subregions assigned, in each case, to a purchasable good, access authorization or authorization for using a service. A good, an access authorization or an authorization for using a service from a plurality of offered goods, access authorizations or authorizations for using a service is purchased, and a user registered in advance for carrying out the method on the basis of biometric features and/or on the basis of features, which may be assigned to the user uniquely, or an item registered in advance for carrying out the method is identified and localized in the defined subregion (1, 2, 3) assigned to the good, access authorization or authorization for using a service.
