Description

The present invention relates to an identification document.

A modern identification document such as identity card or passport includes not only security features which serve to verify authenticity of the identification document, but also a person image of a person to be identified.

In an attempt to forge an identification document, however, not only the security features but also the person image are usually manipulated. While verification of the authenticity of some security features can be performed automatically, automatic verification of the authenticity of personal images is difficult. One reason for this are the different qualities of images of persons and, not least, the different characteristics of persons' faces.

It is therefore the object of the present invention to provide an identification document in which an automated verification of the authenticity of a person image can be performed.

This object is solved by the features of the independent claims. Advantageous forms of further development are the subject of the dependent claims, the description and the attached figures.

The present invention is based on the finding that the above object can be achieved by a test matrix superimposed on the person image with at least one printing ink which is reflective in a non-visible light wavelength range, for example in the infrared wavelength range or in the ultraviolet wavelength range.

According to a first aspect, the invention relates to an identification document having a person image, wherein a test matrix is superimposed on the person image, wherein the test matrix has a first test matrix field and a second test matrix field, wherein the first test matrix field has a first printing ink, which is formed, light in a predetermined Reflect wavelength range, and wherein the second test matrix field is free of the first ink. The test matrix is preferably formed by the test matrix fields and superimposed on the person image. For example, the second test matrix field can not have any ink at all.

Thus, the test matrix may be populated by the first test matrix field or by a plurality of first test matrix arrays to provide a test pattern for examining the authenticity of the person image that is light reflective in the predetermined wavelength range. However, the second test matrix field may also have an ink which differs in optical properties in the predetermined wavelength range from the first ink. Thus, the first test matrix field or the first test matrix fields and the second test matrix field or the second test matrix fields have different optical properties in the predetermined wavelength range, whereby an automated verification of the authenticity of the person image can be realized.

According to one embodiment, the second test matrix field comprises a second printing ink, wherein the first printing ink and the second printing ink are configured to reflect different spectra of the predetermined wavelength range, or wherein the second printing ink is transparent in the predetermined wavelength range.

The predetermined wavelength range may be, for example, the ultraviolet wavelength range having an ultraviolet A spectrum or an ultraviolet B spectrum or an ultraviolet C spectrum. For example, the first ink may be reflective in the ultraviolet A spectrum while the second ink is reflective in the ultraviolet B or ultraviolet C spectrum. However, the first ink may also be reflective in the ultraviolet B spectrum or in the ultraviolet C spectrum, while the second ink is reflective in one of the other ultraviolet spectra. This ensures that the first printing ink and the second printing ink have different reflection properties.

According to one embodiment, the test matrix comprises a third test matrix field with a third printing ink, wherein the third printing ink is designed to reflect light in the predetermined wavelength range. In this case, the first printing ink, the second printing ink and the third printing ink reflect light in different spectrums of the predetermined wavelength range, for example in different ultraviolet spectra of the ultraviolet light, whereby different reflection properties of the test fields in the specific wavelength range can be realized. As a result, a color coding of information, for example a person's date or a document date, can be realized.

In one embodiment, the first ink is configured to reflect light in the ultraviolet A wavelength range, wherein the second ink is configured to reflect light, particularly in the ultraviolet B wavelength range. The different printing inks can For example, reflect different inks or different spectra of the same wavelength range, which also a color coding of information, such as a person's date or a document date, can be realized.

According to one embodiment, the predetermined wavelength range is an ultraviolet wavelength range. By means of the majority of the test matrix fields, different assignments of the test matrix with the first, optionally the second, and optionally the third, printing ink can be achieved, whereby, for example, personalized coding of the test matrix or color coding can be realized.

According to one embodiment, one or more test matrix arrays may be unoccupied and free of ink that is reflective or absorbing in the first wavelength range.

According to one embodiment, the arrangement of the respective check matrix field in the check matrix depends on a person's date or on a document date or is determined by an encoding of a person's date or a document's date. The arrangement of the first test matrix field or of a plurality of first test matrix fields in the test matrix and the arrangement of the second test matrix field or a plurality of second test matrix fields in the test matrix can be predetermined, for example, for a person's date or for a document date, or from a person's date or from a document date be deducible. However, the arrangements of the test matrix fields in the test matrix can be fixed and be fixed and predetermined, for example, for a specific group of persons or for a specific type of identification document, for example an identity card or a passport.

According to one embodiment, the arrangement of the respective check matrix field is determined by a binary or binarized person data or by a binary or binarized document date or is determined by an encoding of a personal date or a document date or by an asymmetric or symmetric encryption or by a digital signature of a person's date or of a document date or is determined by a hash value of a personal date or a document date.

When using a digital signature, a signature can be formed in the document production with the private key from real data (divide), which is used in the coding of the test matrix or with certain values or parts of the signature or via a mapping table are used. During the check, the matrix code can then be read, possibly supplemented with other data of the identification document, if, for example, the storage capacity of the matrix code for a secure signature is possibly too limited, and the authenticity of the real data (parts) is determined with the public key.

According to one embodiment, the real data can be read in, for example by means of software, and form the code according to a corresponding algorithm. The code calculated from the read person or document data (or parts thereof) can then be compared with the read code for correspondence. If the person's date or the document date already exists in binary form, then, for example, the respective binary position can code a position of the respective test matrix field in the test matrix. For example, if the matrix fields are numbered consecutively, then the fifth binary location may indicate that it is a fifth matrix field in the test matrix. By grouping the binary digits, however, any arbitrary addressing of the test matrix fields can be achieved. On the other hand, the significance of the respective binary number can indicate whether a first printing area with the first printing ink or a second printing area with the second printing ink should be arranged in the respective test matrix field. For example, the binary number 1 may indicate the first ink and the binary number 0 the second ink, or vice versa.

If, on the other hand, the personal date or the document date are not in a binary form, they can be converted into a binary form by binarization. In this case, for example, each letter can be assigned a binary number. Similarly, Arabic numerals can be represented directly in binary. With the binarization achieved in this way, the assignment of the matrix in the first and second test matrix field can be carried out as explained above.

However, the arrangements of the first and the second test matrix fields, that is to say the assignment of the matrix fields of the test matrix, can also be achieved by an encryption of a person's date and / or a document date. This encryption can be symmetric encryption or asymmetric encryption using cryptographic keys. In addition, one or more hash values can be generated from the person date and / or from the document date using a predetermined hash value map. By the encryption or by the hash value formation again arise binary representations, which as stated above indicate the arrangements of the first and second pressure ranges and thus the matrix assignment.

According to one embodiment, it is also possible to provide tertiary or even higher-value codings or representations. This can be realized for example on the basis of different values and colors. As a result, more than two binary coding or display options can be provided, for example, when using three colors or three colors plus one value (lack of ink), so that can also tertiary or other codes, even on other number systems with different base numbers, for example 4, 5 or 10, based. A matrix field can thus represent two or more than two values.

If the test matrix has, for example, two columns and three rows, the result is a total of six matrix fields, which can be assigned either to the first printing area or to the second printing area. This results in an arrangement pattern of the first test matrix fields and / or the second test matrix fields and optionally of third test matrix fields, which can be checked using a reference arrangement pattern or, in the case of an arrangement pattern layout, by a binary reference number.

According to one embodiment, the check matrix forms a bar code or a multidimensional and optically detectable code, the code providing coded data, in particular a person data or a document data or derivatives thereof.

Due to the geometric arrangement of the test matrix fields, it is possible to generate graphic patterns which, for example, form a two-dimensional QR code. The optically detectable code may provide encoded data, such as an encoded person's date or a coded document date. By the optical detection of the code as well as by the decoding the data can be recovered and compared for example with reference data.

According to one embodiment, a checksum may be printed as a number, not visible in visible wavelengths, for example in the ultraviolet range, on the person image. The checksum can be 1 or more digits and can be calculated, for example, based on a document date, person data or derivations thereof.

According to one embodiment, the test matrix is printed on a document body above the person image or the test matrix is printed on a film which is arranged above the person image, in particular glued or laminated. The document body may comprise, for example, laminated plastic layers, so that the person image is printed in a first plastic layer, while the test matrix is formed in an overlying plastic layer which is superimposed on the first plastic layer. However, the test matrix can also be printed directly on the person image or mounted on a film which is adhered to a surface of the document body.

According to one embodiment, the respective printing ink is transparent in the visible white light wavelength range. Thus, the printing inks do not cover the person image in the visible light spectrum.

According to one embodiment, a test matrix having a first test matrix field and a second test matrix field is superimposed on a person image, in particular superimposed by printing or gluing, wherein the first test matrix field has a first printing ink which is designed to reflect light in a predetermined wavelength range, and wherein the second Test matrix field is free from the first ink.

According to one embodiment, the method comprises determining the occupancy of the test matrix with the first test matrix field or with a plurality of first test matrix fields and with the second test matrix field or with a plurality of second test matrix fields. This determination can be made, for example, by encoding a person's date or a document date, or by encrypting a person's date or document date, or by hash value generation from a person's date or from a document date.

According to one embodiment, the check matrix fields are arranged in the form of an optically detectable code, for example a bar code or a multi-dimensional code, such as a QR code.

In one embodiment, the method comprises laminating a first plastic layer comprising the person image and a second plastic layer having the test matrix to overlay the test matrix with the document image.

According to a third aspect, the invention relates to a document reader for detecting the authenticity of an identification document, which comprises a person image and a person image superimposed test matrix, wherein the test matrix having a first test matrix field and a second test matrix field, wherein the first test matrix field having a first ink which is adapted to reflect light in a predetermined wavelength range, and wherein the second test matrix field is free of the first ink, with an image pickup device for detecting a recording of the example printed person image in the predetermined light wavelength range and a processor which is adapted to detect in the recording the test matrix with the first test matrix field, which is light-reflecting in the predetermined wavelength range.

The predetermined wavelength range may be, for example, the ultraviolet wavelength range. The document reader can preferably be used to verify the authenticity of the identification document according to the invention, in particular the authenticity of the person image of the identification document according to the invention.

The image recording device is preferably designed to detect the recording in the predetermined wavelength range, for example in the ultraviolet wavelength range. The image recording device is preferably a digital image recording device, so that the image is available digitally and can be supplied to the processor in the form of image data. The processor captures in the image those fields which have a reflection in order to detect the first test matrix field or an array of first test matrix fields and of second test matrix fields. In this case, the processor may for example use information about the size of the test matrix, which may be a 2 × 2 or a 2 × 3 test matrix or another test matrix, in order to search specifically for test matrix fields which are reflective. In this case, the processor can be configured to compare the acquired image information with a threshold value, for example with a brightness threshold, in order to detect the reflective, brighter test matrix fields.

If the test matrix fields of the test matrix are covered with different printing inks, which are reflective at different spectrums of the predetermined wavelength range, for example at different ultraviolet spectra, then the test matrix can also provide color coding, which the processor can decode. In this case, the processor is designed to search for test matrix fields in the aforementioned different spectra of the predetermined wavelength range in order to detect a colored arrangement of test matrix fields, which can likewise encode information.

This color information can be decoded in a manner known per se, and the decoded information can be compared with a reference information in order to check the authenticity of the identification document or the person image.

In one embodiment, the processor is configured to detect an arrangement of the first test matrix field and an arrangement of a second test matrix field or a third test matrix field in the recording of the person image and to decode the decoded arrangement as a barcode or multidimensional code, to decrypt or to a reference arrangement or to detect a color coding of the test matrix with test matrix fields reflecting different spectrums of the predetermined wavelength range, and to decode the detected color code to detect the authenticity of the identification document.

According to one embodiment, the document reading device comprises a light source, which is designed to illuminate the identification document with light in the predetermined wavelength range, in particular in the infrared wavelength range or in the ultraviolet wavelength range, for recording the person image. The light source may be, for example, an infrared light source or an ultraviolet light source. The lighting may include, for example, a top lighting or a backlight.

According to one embodiment, the document reader comprises a document support, which is transparent in the predetermined wavelength range. In this case, the light source can be arranged below the document support and illuminate the applied identification document through the document support in order to obtain the image of the person image.

According to one embodiment, the document reader is a mobile document reader, for example in the form of a smartphone. The light source can be realized in this case by the integrated image illumination of the smartphone, which is designed or driven to emit light in the predetermined wavelength range.

According to one embodiment, the processor is designed to detect an arrangement of the respective reflective test matrix field (s) in the recording of the person image and to decode, decrypt or compare the detected arrangement as multidimensional code with the reference arrangement in order to verify the authenticity of the identification document capture.

By way of example, as stated above, the arrangements of the reflective test matrix fields encode a binary or a higher-order, for example ternary, number which, for example, can be compared with a reference binary number to detect the authenticity of the printed person image.

According to one embodiment, higher-order number systems, for example the base number 8 octal system or the base number 10 decimal system, can also be used.

According to one embodiment, other bases may also be used. For example, the number system with the base number 4 with 3 UV colors allows 4 possible values per matrix field.

According to one embodiment, the arrangements of the first to second printing area form a bar code or a multi-dimensional code, in particular an optically detectable code, such as a QR code, which can be decoded in a manner known per se in order to obtain coded information or coded data and to use these to verify the authenticity of the identification document.

In one embodiment, the arrays of the reflective test matrix arrays form a graphical pattern that can be compared to a reference graphic pattern to capture the authenticity of the identification document.

In all aspects and embodiments of the invention, the person's date may include a name, birthday, address, or other indication regarding the person depicted on the person's image. The document date may have a document number, a date of issue, or an expiration date, with or without a check digit. The document data may further include at least a date of a machine-readable zone or parts thereof of the identification document. Thus, the arrangements of the test matrix fields can be assigned to specific personal data and / or document data. This assignment can be fixed or determined by an encoding.

1 shows a schematic representation of an identification document 100 that a person picture 101 having a test matrix 103 is superimposed. The test matrix 103 includes rows and columns defining test matrix fields with a first test matrix field 105 and a second test matrix field 107 , The test matrix 103 may be a plurality of first check matrix fields 105 and a plurality of second test matrix arrays 107 exhibit.

The first test matrix fields 105 are with a first printing ink 107 printed, which is light-reflecting in a predetermined wavelength range. The predetermined wavelength range may be, for example, the ultraviolet wavelength range. The second test matrix fields 107 On the other hand, they are free of the first printing ink 105 or transparent. According to one embodiment, the check matrix fields are 107 free from any printing ink. According to a further embodiment, the second test fields 107 a second ink which is also reflective in the predetermined wavelength range but in a different spectrum than the first ink 105 , This achieves color coding.

For example, the first ink 105 be reflective in the ultraviolet A wavelength range, while those in 1 not shown second ink in the ultraviolet B spectrum or in the ultraviolet C spectrum reflective acts, or vice versa.

The identification document may further include, for example, a document date, For example, a document number which is in a machine-readable zone 109 of the identification document 100 is arranged. The assignment of the fields of the test matrix 103 ie the arrangements of the respective test matrix field 105 . 107 , the document date 109 for example, binarized, ie converted in a binary representation. In an analogous manner, for example, a person's date, for example a person's name or an image information, can be binarized, ie converted into a binary representation. With the binary representation, fields of the test matrix can be used simultaneously 103 can be addressed, and it can be displayed simultaneously, where the first Prüfmatrixbereiche 105 and / or where the second test matrix areas 107 should be located.

The second check matrix field 107 can be free from the first printing ink 106 be. According to one embodiment, the second check matrix field 107 however, have a second ink which also reflects light in the predetermined wavelength range but in a different non-visible spectrum of light than the first ink 106 , If the predetermined wavelength range is the ultraviolet wavelength range, color coding can thereby be realized, wherein a color selection can, for example, change like a matrix and can correspond to a coding. In this case, the color pattern can be permanently or dynamically coded, for example as a function of a person's date or of a document date. In this way it is also possible to use a plurality of distinguishable ultraviolet colors, for example red, green or blue, or else a combination of a color coding and a matrix coding. In addition, the different reflectable spectra may be ultraviolet spectrums of type A, B or C.

In the in 1 illustrated embodiment includes the test matrix 103 two lines and two columns. However, the number of rows and / or columns may also be dynamically coded, for example, depending on a person's date or a document date, such as a document number, a date of a document issue, or an expiration date. In this way, the size of the test matrix can also be 103 be variable.

2 shows exemplary embodiments of an occupancy of the test matrix 103 , for example 2 × 2, with a light-reflecting printing ink, for example with the first printing ink 106 , As it is in 2a 4, the test matrix arrays which are to have a light-reflecting printing ink can be provided with the plus sign, while test matrix arrays which should not have a light-reflecting printing ink can be provided with the minus sign. The arrangement of the plus and minus signs can be fixed for a group of people, for a kind of identification document or for certain countries. However, the arrangements of the plus or minus signs may be personalized and depend on a person's date, document date or a coding of this data or an encryption of this data.

As it is in 2 B As a result, for example, the first test matrix fields result 105 in the in 2 exemplified arrangement. The second test matrix fields 107 are in the in 2 illustrated embodiment, for example, free of the first ink 106 , so that when illuminated in the predetermined wavelength range, for example in a UV illumination, in the 2c pattern shown results. The second test matrix areas 107 , which are free of ink, appear dark while the first test matrix areas 105 have a reflective effect. The reflection pattern can be detected and used to verify the authenticity of the identification document or the person image. In this case, the reflection pattern can be compared, for example, with a reference pattern. Further, the reflection pattern may be understood as a binary encoding which may be decoded or decrypted using a cryptographic key.

However, according to one embodiment, the size of the test matrix can also be variable and depend, for example, on a person's date, a document date or a coding or an encryption of this data. 3 shows exemplary embodiments of a test matrix 301 with two rows and three columns using the example of an assignment of the first check matrix fields 105 with the first light-reflecting ink 106 ,

According to one embodiment, the test matrices 103 and 301 however, to be firmly defined and to have a same layout pattern for all faces of a document type with, for example, a monochrome representation, for example the first ink 106 , exhibit.

According to an embodiment, the size of the test matrix may be fixed or variable, while the test matrix fields have printing inks which are different in the predetermined wavelength range. This can be realized by the fact that the different printing inks reflect different light spectra.

4 shows the test matrix 103 with an exemplary assigned pattern, which is characterized by the plus sign, which indicate a light-reflecting ink, and with different inks. So can, as it is in 4b is shown, only the first test matrix fields 105 with the first printing ink 106 , Blue, for example. The arrangement of the first pressure areas 105 results from the in 4a illustrated arrangement of the plus sign, which indicates a coding or an assignment of the matrix. This indicates in particular which test matrix field should be light-reflecting. In the in 4d illustrated embodiment includes the test matrix 103 a third test matrix area 401 , which with a second printing ink 403 is occupied. The second printing ink can be, for example, the printing ink green. This results in the in 4a shown matrix assignment a different color pattern of Prüfmatrixbereiche 105 . 401 which indicates a color coding.

In 4e an embodiment is shown in which the third test matrix field 401 with a third printing ink 405 , for example red, is occupied. The first printing ink 106 , the second printing ink 403 and the third ink 405 For example, they are designed to reflect light in different light spectra. For this purpose, the printing inks 106 . 403 . 405 be provided with different light-reflecting pigments.

In the 5c . 5d and 5e arise for the different printing inks different color patterns or color coding, which to verify the authenticity of the person image 101 can be used.

The sizes of the matrices 103 . 301 may be fixed or personalized and may be determined, for example, by a person's date, by a document date or by an encoding or encryption or hash value calculation on the basis of the document date.

According to one embodiment, the size of the test matrix may be predetermined, while the matrix assignment is monochrome or multicolor and corresponds to a coding. In the 6a to 6l are the example of the first test matrix field 105 different assignments of the test matrix 103 represented, which different patterns of the same printing ink, for example, the first ink 106 , exhibit. The different assignments of the test matrix fields can be a result of a personalization of the test matrix 103 and depend, for example, on a person's date or on a document date as already described. However, the different assignments of the test matrix fields can be understood as an optically detectable code, for example a barcode or a multi-dimensional code, which can also be optically detected and decoded. The optically detectable code may, for example, encode a person's date or a document date or other information which, after being decoded, may be compared with a reference date or with reference information in order to verify the authenticity of the person's image 101 to check.

The first printing ink 106 , the second printing ink 401 and the third ink 403 are transparent in the white light area, for example.

The in the 6 and 7 shown second test matrix fields 107 are free of any printing ink. According to one embodiment, however, the second test matrix fields can also be used 107 with the second printing ink 401 or the third ink 402 to be occupied.

However, according to one embodiment, the size of the check matrix itself may be variable and personalized, such that the number of rows and columns may be dynamic, such as a person's date, a document date, or encoding, encryption, or hashed based on the person's date and the document's date depend.

In the 8d . 8e is a 3x3 test matrix 801 shown while in the 8f . 8g a 3 × 4 test matrix 103 is shown. In this way, different test patterns, which are distinguished by light-reflecting test matrix fields, can be defined which, for example, form an optical code which can be decoded. As the number of light-reflecting test matrix fields increases, so does the coded information density.

9 shows test matrices whose sizes, ie their number of rows and columns and their assignments are personalized with light-reflecting test matrix fields and, for example, a person date, a document date, coding, encryption or hash value based on the person's date or the document date depend. In the 9a to 9c are test matrices 103 such as 301 represented, which the in 9 illustrated arrangement of the light-reflecting Prüfmatrixfelder 105 . 401 with the printing inks 106 . 403 . 405 exhibit.
