User identity authentication using virtual reality

Abstract

A method for user identity authentication using virtual reality includes presenting one or more virtual elements on a virtual reality (VR) scenario of a VR application for initiating a service, identifying, using one or more sensors communicably coupled to the VR device, one or more interactive operations of a user of the VR device with the one or more virtual elements, determining whether the one or more interactive operations match one or more predetermined operations for selecting the one or more virtual elements to initiate the service and trigger biometric authentication for user identity authentication, invoking biometric authentication if the one or more interactive operations match one or more predetermined operations, presenting a virtual guidance in the VR scenario for guiding the user to perform the biometric authentication, and presenting a service interface to the user if the biometric authentication is successful.

         21 . A computer-implemented method, comprising:
 receiving a request by a user to access a service interface by interacting with one or more virtual elements in a virtual reality (VR) scenario of a VR application;   in response, initiating an authentication process comprising:
 performing a bioassay process to determine whether the user requesting access to the service interface is a real person; 
   determining that the authentication process is successful; and   in response to determining that the authentication process is successful, presenting the service interface within the VR application.

         26 . The method of  claim 24 , wherein the biometric information comprises an iris scan. 
     
     
         27 . The method of  claim 24 , wherein the biometric information comprises a voiceprint of the user. 
     
     
         28 . A system comprising:
 one or more computers and one or more storage devices storing instructions that are operable, when executed by the one or more computers, to cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:   receiving a request by a user to access a service interface by interacting with one or more virtual elements in a virtual reality (VR) scenario of a VR application;   in response, initiating an authentication process comprising:
 performing a bioassay process to determine whether the user requesting access to the service interface is a real person; 
   determining that the authentication process is successful; and   in response to determining that the authentication process is successful, presenting the service interface within the VR application.   
     
     
         29 . The system of  claim 28 , wherein performing the bioassay process comprises detecting, by a VR device worn by the user, eye-blinking by the user. 
     
     
         30 . The system of  claim 28 , wherein performing the bioassay process comprises detecting, by a VR device worn by the user, a heartbeat of the user. 
     
     
         31 . The system of  claim 28 , wherein the authentication process further comprises:
 prompting the user to enter biometric information; and   authenticating the user based on the biometric information.   
     
     
         32 . The system of  claim 31 , wherein the biometric information comprises a fingerprint scan. 
     
     
         33 . The system of  claim 31 , wherein the biometric information comprises an iris scan. 
     
     
         34 . The system of  claim 31 , wherein the biometric information comprises a voiceprint of the user. 
     
     
         35 . One or more non-transitory computer storage media encoded with computer program instructions that when executed by one or more computers cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:
 receiving a request by a user to access a service interface by interacting with one or more virtual elements in a virtual reality (VR) scenario of a VR application;   in response, initiating an authentication process comprising:
 performing a bioassay process to determine whether the user requesting access to the service interface is a real person; 
   determining that the authentication process is successful; and   in response to determining that the authentication process is successful, presenting the service interface within the VR application.   
     
     
         36 . The one or more computer storage media of  claim 35 , wherein performing the bioassay process comprises detecting, by a VR device worn by the user, eye-blinking by the user. 
     
     
         37 . The one or more computer storage media of  claim 35 , wherein performing the bioassay process comprises detecting, by a VR device worn by the user, a heartbeat of the user.
