Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft das Gebiet der elektronischen Zugangskontrolle, insbesondere der elektronischen Zugangskontrolle an Grenzübergängen.The present invention relates to the field of electronic access control, in particular electronic access control at border crossings.

Die Druckschrift DE 10 2012 203 311 A1 offenbart ein Verfahren zum Identifizieren einer Person, nach dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1.The publication DE 10 2012 203 311 A1 discloses a method of identifying a person, according to the preamble of claim 1.

Die Druckschrift US 2013/250087 A1 offenbart ein System, das prädiktive Kopf- und Augenbewegungsmodelle für die Erfassung von Irisbildern implementiert, während sich die Person bewegt und sich in beträchtlicher Entfernung von einem Sensor befindet.The publication US 2013/250087 A1 discloses a system that implements predictive head and eye movement models for capturing iris images while the person is moving and is a considerable distance from a sensor.

Die Druckschrift US 2014/337930 A1 bezieht sich auf biometrisch authentifizierte Zugangssysteme. Es beschreibt Lebenderkennung durch Erzeugen eines Temperaturprofils des Gesichts eines Benutzers unter Verwendung einer Deep-Infrarot-Kamera und anschließendes Analysieren des Temperaturprofils, um zu bestätigen, dass das Gesicht eine erwartete Temperatur oder ein Temperaturmuster eines menschlichen Gesichts aufweist.The publication US 2014/337930 A1 relates to biometrically authenticated access systems. It describes live detection by generating a temperature profile of a user's face using a deep infrared camera and then analyzing the temperature profile to confirm that the face has an expected temperature or temperature pattern of a human face.

Die Druckschrift US 8 657 190 B2 offenbart eine Vorrichtung für einen Kontrollpunkt. Ein einfaches erstes biometrisches System, beispielsweise ein Fingerabdruckscanner, ist an der Eingangstür installiert, um den Zugang zur Schleuse zu überprüfen. In der Ausgangstür ist eine Kamera zur biometrischen Erkennung, beispielsweise Gesichtserkennung, einer Person die den Schließbereich betreten hat integriert.The publication US 8 657 190 B2 discloses a control point device. A simple first biometric system, for example a fingerprint scanner, is on the Entrance door installed to check access to the lock. A camera for biometric recognition, for example face recognition, of a person who has entered the closing area is integrated in the exit door.

Elektronische Zugangskontrollen von Personen sind in einer Mehrzahl von Anwendungen von besonderem Interesse. Insbesondere bei Zugangskontrollen an Grenzübergängen, beispielsweise an Flughäfen, ist eine effiziente Identifikation der Personen wünschenswert, um den Personen einen Zugang zu gewähren oder zu verweigern. Gegenwärtig wird bei einer elektronischen Zugangskontrolle einer Person ein Identifikationsdokument der Person, beispielsweise ein Personalausweis oder ein Reisepass, an einer Eingangstür verifiziert. Die Person betritt anschließend einen Bereich hinter der Eingangstür, welche daraufhin geschlossen wird. In diesem Bereich wird schließlich ein biometrisches Merkmal der Person erfasst, um die Identität der Person zu verifizieren. Die elektronische Zugangskontrolle erfolgt somit üblicherweise auf Basis zweier unabhängiger Schritte, wobei eine Vereinzelung der Personen durchgeführt wird. Dies ist mit einem hohen Zeitaufwand bei der Identifizierung der Personen verbunden und führt zu einer verringerten Effizienz der elektronischen Zugangskontrolle.Electronic access controls for people are of particular interest in a variety of applications. In particular in the case of access controls at border crossings, for example at airports, efficient identification of the people is desirable in order to grant or deny access to the people. At present, in the case of electronic access control of a person, an identification document of the person, for example an identity card or a passport, is verified at an entrance door. The person then enters an area behind the front door, which is then closed. Finally, a biometric characteristic of the person is recorded in this area in order to verify the identity of the person. Electronic access control is therefore usually carried out on the basis of two independent steps, with the individuals being separated. This is associated with a high expenditure of time in the identification of the persons and leads to a reduced efficiency of the electronic access control.

Es ist daher die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ein effizientes Konzept zur elektronischen Zugangskontrolle zu schaffen.It is therefore the object of the present invention to create an efficient concept for electronic access control.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale der unabhängigen Ansprüche gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungsformen sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Patentansprüche, der Beschreibung sowie der Figuren.This object is solved by the features of the independent claims. Advantageous forms of further training are the subject of the dependent claims, the description and the figures.

Dadurch wird erreicht, dass die elektronische Zugangskontrolle schneller durchgeführt werden kann, und somit die Effizienz der elektronischen Zugangskontrolle erhöht wird. Ferner kann ein Durchsatz zu identifizierender Personen bei elektronischen Zugangskontrollen erhöht werden.The result of this is that the electronic access control can be carried out more quickly and the efficiency of the electronic access control is thus increased. Furthermore, a throughput of persons to be identified in electronic access controls can be increased.

Das Identifikationsdokument kann eines der folgenden Identifikationsdokumente sein: Identitätsdokument, wie Personalausweis, Reisepass, Zugangskontrollausweis, Berechtigungsausweis, Unternehmensausweis, Steuerzeichen oder Ticket, Geburtsurkunde, Führerschein oder Kraftfahrzeugausweis, Zahlungsmittel, beispielsweise eine Bankkarte oder Kreditkarte. Das Identifikationsdokument kann ferner einen elektronisch auslesbaren Schaltkreis, beispielsweise einen RFID-Chip umfassen. Das Identifikationsdokument kann ein- oder mehrlagig bzw. papier- und/oder kunststoffbasiert sein. Das Identifikationsdokument kann aus kunststoffbasierten Folien aufgebaut sein, welche zu einem Kartenkörper mittels Verkleben und/oder Laminieren zusammengefügt werden, wobei die Folien bevorzugt ähnliche stoffliche Eigenschaften aufweisen.The identification document can be one of the following identification documents: identity document, such as identity card, passport, access control card, authorization card, company card, tax stamp or ticket, birth certificate, driver's license or motor vehicle card, means of payment, for example a bank card or credit card. The identification document can further comprise an electronically readable circuit, for example an RFID chip. The identification document can be single or multi-layer or paper and / or plastic based. The identification document can be constructed from plastic-based foils which are joined to form a card body by means of gluing and / or laminating, the foils preferably having similar material properties.

Das Personenreferenzbild kann gemäß dem Standard ISO/IEC 19794 oder dem Standard ICAO 9303 standardisiert sein. Das Personenbild kann durch die Biometrie-Erfassungseinrichtung perspektivisch entzerrt werden.The person reference image can be standardized in accordance with the ISO / IEC 19794 standard or the ICAO 9303 standard. The person image can be rectified in perspective using the biometric detection device.

Die Personenkennung kann ein Personendatum, beispielsweise ein Name, der Person sein. Die Personenkennung kann ferner ein Code und/oder ein Pseudonym sein, welche der Person zugeordnet sind. Die Personenkennung kann eine Restricted-ID des Identifikationsdokumentes gemäß dem Standard BSI TR-03110 sein.The person identifier can be a person's date, for example a name, of the person. The personal identifier can also be a code and / or a pseudonym, which are assigned to the person.

Der Vergleich kann unter Verwendung einer optischen Mustererkennung durchgeführt werden. Die optische Mustererkennung kann eine Extraktion von Bildmerkmalen des Identifikationsmerkmals und des biometrischen Merkmals, beispielsweise unter Verwendung einer Scale-Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT), umfassen.The comparison can be carried out using optical pattern recognition. The optical pattern recognition can include an extraction of image features of the identification feature and the biometric feature, for example using a scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT).

Anschließend erfolgt eine Verifikation eines biometrischen Merkmals der Person 301 in einem Zwischenbereich zwischen der Eingangstür und einer Ausgangstür. Dabei wird die Erfassung des biometrischen Merkmals, beispielsweise eines gesichtsbiometrischen Merkmals der Person 301, erst dann gestartet, wenn die Eingangstür hinter der Person 301 geschlossen wurde. Dies wird durchgeführt, damit keine andere Person nach der Verifikation des Identifikationsdokumentes 305 in den Zwischenbereich eintreten kann. Die Eingangstür, der Zwischenbereich und die Ausgangstür können eine Schleuse bilden. Gemäß einer Ausführungsform bildet die Zugangsschranke 307 die Eingangstür.There are usually two separate steps in electronic access control. First, an identification document 305 is placed and verified by a person 301 at an entrance door. Then a verification of a biometric feature of person 301 takes place in an intermediate area between the entrance door and an exit door. The detection of the biometric feature, for example a facial biometric feature of person 301, is only started when the entrance door behind person 301 has been closed. This is done so that no other person can enter the intermediate area after verification of the identification document 305. The entrance door, the intermediate area and the exit door can form a lock. In one embodiment, access barrier 307 forms the entrance door.

Erfindungsgemäß wird gewährleistet, dass die Person 301, deren Identität schon vor dem Eintreten verifiziert wurde, auch die Person 301 ist, welche eintritt.

Erfindungsgemäß wird die Erfassung des biometrischen Merkmals der Person 301, und die Lebenderkennung der Person 301, vor einem Durchtreten der Zugangsschranke 307 in den Zwischenbereich durchgeführt, und innerhalb des Zwischenbereichs erneut eine Erfassung des biometrischen Merkmals durchgeführt, jedoch mit einem verringerten Vergleichsschwellwert des biometrischen Merkmals. Somit kann die Zugangskontrolle weiter beschleunigt werden.According to the invention, the detection of the biometric feature of the person 301, and the living detection of the person 301, are carried out before the access barrier 307 has passed through the intermediate area, and the biometric feature is again detected within the intermediate area, but with a reduced comparison threshold value of the biometric feature. Access control can thus be further accelerated.

Übliche durchschnittliche Durchlaufzeiten elektronischer Zugangskontrollsysteme liegen im Bereich von 30 bis 50 Sekunden. Das elektronische Zugangskontrollverfahren 100 und das elektronische Zugangskontrollsystem 200 ermöglichen eine Beschleunigung um mehrere Sekunden. Somit kann eine Erhöhung der durchschnittlichen Durchlaufzeiten erreicht werden. Ferner kann eine Anzahl elektronischer Zugangskontrollsysteme an Grenzübergängen bei gleichem Durchsatz an Personen verringert werden.Usual average lead times for electronic access control systems are in the range of 30 to 50 seconds. The electronic access control method 100 and the electronic access control system 200 enable acceleration of several seconds. This means that the average throughput times can be increased. Furthermore, a number of electronic access control systems at border crossings can be reduced with the same throughput of people.
