Application: Use of qr codes in online encoding (Patent ID: US20240080317A1)
The patent filed by Assa Abloy AB describes a method for encoding a credential device in an authentication system. The process involves sending credential device information to a backend server using a mobile device, verifying ownership of the devices, generating a QR code with encoding information for the credential device, decoding the QR code, and encoding the credential device with the retrieved information. The method allows for secure and efficient encoding of credential devices within the authentication system.
Additionally, the patent includes claims related to the specific implementation of the method, such as using a smart card as the credential device, encrypting application protocol data units (APDUs) in the QR code, identifying the type and serial number of the credential device, and enabling system administrators to generate encoding information. The patent also covers the functionality of a verifier device within the authentication system, which decodes credential device information, verifies data about the devices, and encodes QR codes. Furthermore, the patent includes instructions for a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that enable a mobile device to encode, decode, and interact with the QR codes for credential devices. Overall, the patent outlines a comprehensive system for encoding and managing credential devices in an authentication system.
