SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR VERIFYING IDENTITY USING BIOMETRIC DATA

A system for registering an individual's biometric data and then later verifying the identity of the individual using the previously registered biometric data makes use of either an audio communications channel or a messaging channel, both of which are accessed via an application programming interface (API). In some instances, spoken audio input is received from the individual and the spoken audio input is used to generate a voice print for the individual. In other instances, the biometric data could be image-based, such as facial images or an image of an individual's iris.
