D-Points can be configured that red subjects must move away to the right or the left. If a subject moves in the wrong direction, an audible and/or visual alarm can activate warning the authorised Officer; (B) Green (or other configurable colour) indicates that the subject has been identified by V-Point and has been authorised to proceed past the access line.

  • 'FacelV' as used herein is a set of libraries developed by Fieldware Pty Ltd, of Australia. These libraries provide system integrators with a framework to simplify the integration of facial biometric software (normally implemented in C++) into enterprise business systems (often implemented using J2EE).
  • the libraries are can be implemented in Java, using J2EE standards, and provide support for live verification, manual verification, FLR creation and storage, similarity calculation, queuing of transactions and publishing of biometric events using JMS.
  • Figs. 8, 9, 10 and 11 illustrate flow charts for process control in an automated border control system, for example as previously discussed with reference to V-Point. These flowcharts detail specific logic steps that may be utilised and how exception passengers can be handled.
  • the border control system adopts a component and modular based architecture.
  • the system includes the major subsystems of a main capture system and a retrieval system.
  • the main capture system can include registration, assessment, acknowledgment, verification and issuance.
  • the entire application can be automatically moved to the a central host database for final completion of processing and archiving.
  • the 'SmartGate' system supports biometric templates contained on, for example, a passport, as opposed to being stored in a database.
  • the physical architecture of the system (in terms of system nodes), can remain the same as hereinbefore described, with the possible exception of separate servers to host a SQL server database application and other application services. That is, there are two main types of physical component: a SmartGate server and a verification station. Software services can be deployed in the following manner:
  • Verification Station (1) Verification service 745 (2) Face recognition processing engine 750 (3) J2EE application server 710 (4) SQL server 705 (eg. Desktop edition) (5) Configuration service 755
  • J2EE defines a standard for integration of a variety of common security frameworks and products, including SSL and PKI implementations;
  • SQL Server 2000 Standard edition can be deployed on the SmartGate server.
  • a J2EE application server could be hosted on the SmartGate server to provide enterprise-level, and standards-based services such as:
  • the application server could run other services required for the system as identified in the following sub-sections.
  • a transaction sink 1210 could be a J2EE-based application which stores transactions which have been put on the queue.
  • a transaction message queue can be a JMS (Java Message Service - a J2EE standard for point-to-point and publish-and-subscribe messaging) -based message queue which allows the transactions to be delivered efficiently and transactionally to the server.
  • JMS supports the point-to-point messaging concepts of guaranteed delivery and once-and-once- only delivery.
  • the system could also support local storage of transactions (on the verification station) for the purpose of disaster recovery, allowing the system to "replay" transactions from a particular point in time if data corruption occurs. These transactions could be removed or archived from the verification systems at pre-defined intervals.
  • An event topics service is a JMS-based service that supports the publish-and-subscribe mechanism of enterprise, distributed event handling. Verification stations could "publish” events to different topics, and various components of the event monitoring service could "subscribe” to the various topics. These events could be configured to be stored in a variety of formats, including database, log files or a Windows event log.
  • a configuration server could be a central point of management of verification stations, providing a database of locations and current status of devices.
  • the interface could be web-based, such that those with appropriate security could configure various aspects of the system, including re-starting of individual stations, setting thresholds etc.
  • An event monitoring service could monitor event/alarm topics and either forward on to another service and/or store 1220 the message either in the SQL server 1230 database, or as a text file in a particular format (for example XML).
  • the "other service” could typically be an SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)-based service, allowing the system to be monitored by a COTS device monitoring product, such as HP Open View. This would allow the network manager to have a graphical view of the system, being able to view a high level diagram, and being able to "drill-down" to individual verification station details within, for example, an airport.
  • SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol
  • a reporting system could be defined by a user, for example Immigration. With enterprise-level systems such as business objects, object-schemas could be created that map to the physical database structure to allow intuitive creation of ad-hoc reports from SmartGate data. All data including transaction and event data can be reported.
  • a data summarisation and archiving service could be designed to support data warehouse application.
  • the verification service could contain additional processing of a biometric record obtained from, for example, a passport.
  • a device preferably would include a computer operating system device driver. This is to primarily allow for reduced testing requirements, easier roll-out and the possibility of remote software upgrading of the verification stations.
  • the face recognition processing engine could support the ability to accept an FIR or image from a smartcard on a passport, as opposed to a "token" (eg. the passport details), which requires a database lookup to obtain the FIR.
  • the configuration service is a process running on each verification station which receives messages from the configuration server, running on the SmartGate Server. The configuration service controls the configurable parameters of a station, for example by having direct access to the physical device and manipulating text files. The service allows remote management of the station.
  • a mechanism for the delivery of transactions is to use JMS point-to-point messaging.
  • Transactions from the verification stations 1240 could be stored locally in the SQL server 1230 database and queued locally 1250 to be sent to the SmartGate server.
  • a service on the verification station 1240 would remove the transactions from the local queue 1250 and send them to the SmartGate server via an encrypted queue.
  • the purpose of the intermediate queue is to allow each verification station to be configured to queue transactions to the server at different intervals, and to cater for the situation when the communications to the SmartGate server is down.
  • transactions would not be put 1255 on the encrypted queue 1260 until the server is available.
  • the standard may be no interval - that is, transactions are immediately sent to the SmartGate server, enabling accurate up-to-the-minute status reports. This mechanism is not believed to be a network traffic issue, and hence should not affect the interrogation or "movement" of persons.
  • An electronic document for example an e-passport, life cycle begins with the registration and enrolment process for all new applications.
  • Applications may vary from the type of passport applied for and to whom it is issued. Generally there are three types, diplomatic, official and general.

Abstract

La présente invention se rapporte à un procédé et/ou à un système de régulation d'accès permettant une identification automatisée de sujets et de traitement de la vérification de sujets tentant de traverser une ligne de sécurité (tels que des passagers traversant une ligne de première inspection d'immigration dans un aéroport ou une frontière terrestre) au moyen d'une identification personnelle (du type combinaison de jetons et d'un contrôle d'accès biométrique). Une station de vérification des portillons à verrouillage conçus pour diriger les sujets et des capteurs permettent d'obtenir un débit de passage élevé des sujets. Des moyens de régulation permettant de traiter des exceptions parmi les sujets, qui sont commandés par un officier autorisé et qui permettent de diriger des sujets vers une zone de retenue, sont utilisés aux fins de la mise en oeuvre d'un traitement supplémentaire tandis que la gestion continue des sujets suivants peut se dérouler normalement.
