Description

Multi-verification system for self-service energy refilling

This invention is about multi-authentication technology, and more particularly about a multi-authentication system for self-service energy replenishment.

Nowadays, most energy refueling stations are equipped with self-service energy refueling lanes in addition to manual energy refueling lanes. Consumers can refuel by themselves and use the self-service energy refueling machines installed next to the energy refueling equipment to operate the self-service energy refueling service and pay by credit card, eliminating the trouble of queuing in the manual energy refueling lanes, achieving the advantages of saving time, money and convenience.

However, the existing energy refueling station payment system mainly uses credit cards, credit card payment passwords, account prepaid funds (such as consumers' membership accounts at the energy refueling station) and third-party payment platforms to identify consumers. Therefore, there are problems such as password theft, theft during password verification, and unauthorized access.

In summary, there is an urgent need for a multi-authentication system for self-service energy refilling in this field, which can improve the security of consumers' payment by credit card, account prepaid funds and third-party payment platform during self-service energy refilling, so as to provide consumers with additional identity verification.

In view of this, this invention provides a multi-authentication system for self-service energy replenishment, including a user-end device, an energy refueling station system and a multi-authentication service platform, wherein the user-end device includes: an application for processing transaction data and first biometric data, and transmitting the transaction data and the first biometric data; the energy refueling station system includes: an image recognition device for obtaining vehicle entry data, and transmitting the vehicle Admission data; a biometric device for obtaining a second biometric data of a user end and transmitting the second biometric data; and an energy refilling device having an energy refilling gun for providing energy refilling services, generating an energy refilling service completion instruction, and transmitting the energy refilling service completion instruction; and the multi-authentication service platform includes: a cloud energy refilling station server device, which is: electrically connected to the user end device to process incoming The device receives and transmits the transaction data from the user device, and receives and transmits the first biometric data from the user device; is electrically connected to the image recognition device to process the vehicle entry data from the image recognition device; and is electrically connected to the energy replenishment device to process the energy replenishment service completion instruction from the energy replenishment device; and a cloud biometric server device, which is: electrically connected to the cloud energy replenishment station server The device processes the first biometric data from the cloud energy replenishment station server device, captures the biometric feature based on the first biometric data, and transmits the biometric feature; and is electrically connected to the biometric device to process the second biometric data from the biometric device, and performs verification based on the second biometric data to generate end-member data, and transmit the end-member data.

In summary, the multi-verification system for self-service energy refilling not only solves the security and identity verification concerns of credit cards, account prepaid funds and third-party payment platforms during self-service energy refilling in existing technologies, but also provides the following functions and effects:

1. The cloud biometric server device of the multi-factor authentication service platform of this invention can encode the biometric data (i.e., the biometric data used as the authentication factor) provided by the user, such as but not limited to the user's facial photo, so that it cannot be recognized by external systems, external devices or external personnel, so as to ensure the security of the user's authentication factor.

2. The cloud biometric server device of the multi-factor authentication service platform of this invention is only responsible for capturing the characteristics of the biometric data, and does not store the biometric characteristics, in order to ensure the security of the authentication factors of the user end and avoid the leakage of sensitive data (restricted data). In addition, it can also reduce the cost of the cloud biometric server device of the multi-factor authentication service platform (that is, the cloud biometric server device does not need to be configured with a database to store the biometric characteristics) and speed up the identity verification process.
