Abstract
Methods and systems for performing demographics filtering based on biometric information are disclosed. An access terminal can capture a biometric instance corresponding to a user, such as a fingerprint scan, iris scan, etc. The access terminal can determine demographics information from the biometric instance, such as the age, biological sex, or ethnicity of the user. The access terminal can compare the demographics information to demographics information stored on a group of mobile devices corresponding to a group of users, in order to identify candidate user mobile devices. Once candidate user mobile devices are identified, the access terminal can perform a biometric match between the biometric instance corresponding to the user and biometric instances stored on the candidate user mobile devices. Once a biometric match and the corresponding mobile device are determined, the access terminal can conduct a further interaction with the mobile device.
