Abstract
The use of an anonymous biometric authentication system and method that use biometrics to anonymously authenticate an individual and grant certain privileges based on the anonymous authentication is provided. The system and method permit enrollment of an individual by submission of a first biometric and associated identity documents or credentials to an enrollment authority. The enrollment authority verifies the identity of the identity of the individual submitting the biometric using the credentials which are then returned to the individual or discarded. The first biometric is stored in a database for later retrieval in anonymously authenticating an individual seeking to exercise certain privileges. No other personal identity information is stored along with the biometric during the enrollment process. When an individual later seeks to exercise certain privileges, they must submit a second biometric that is compared to the stored biometrics in the database in order to anonymously authenticate the identity of the individual as having access to such privileges. No other personal information is captured, collected, or solicited during the authentication process. Privileges are granted to an individual based on the comparison of the later captured biometric to the stored biometrics in the database. Alternatively, the anonymous biometric authentication system can be designed to avoid repeat offenders by capturing a biometric of an individual seeking to exercise a privilege and denying the privilege if the captured biometric is matched to a biometric stored in a database containing the biometrics of previous offenders. Preferably, the system and method include capture and storage of a powerful biometric identifier based on the iris of the eye which uniquely identifies the individual that has submitted the biometric. Anonymous biometric authentication allows verification of the identity of an individual seeking certain privileges while at the same time protecting the privacy of personal information about the individual.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
