Abstract

A method for authenticating smart glasses in a data network includes transmitting a message to an authentication computer of the data network, generating a first transaction code and transmitting to the smart glasses, reading authorization data of a user, without involving the smart glasses, into the data network and processing by the authentication computer, which carries out an authentication of the user on the basis of the authorization data, and in case of a successful authentication, reading a second transaction code into the data network, wherein if a check performed by the authentication computer shows that the second transaction code matches the first, an access right is provided for the smart glasses and stored in the smart glasses, the access right enabling the smart glasses to access one or a plurality of predetermined services in the data network.
