Abstract
A system for performing authorization of a user in a virtual reality environment includes a virtual reality user device. The virtual reality user device includes a display configured to display a virtual environment. The user device receives a virtual authentication object comprising a virtual representation of an object that the user can manipulate to enter an authentication code. The user device detects gestures performed by the user on the displayed virtual authentication object and forms an authentication request, which includes the virtual authentication object, the detected gestures; and an identifier of the user. The user device sends the authentication request to an authentication server. The authentication server determines an authentication code using the virtual authentication object and the detected gestures. The authentication server authenticates the user by comparing the determined authentication code with an authentication code stored in a database and sends an authentication response to the user device.
