Akamedia Japan Co., Ltd. (Chuo-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Mairu Kikuchi) is pleased to announce that it has obtained a patent for “FACE BADGE®,” a digital certificate within our next-generation e-learning system “ONLINE FACE®” that prevents forgery and tampering and allows for authenticity verification.

This patented technology robustly prevents the forgery and tampering that can be a concern when digitally issuing certificates for courses, training, and examinations conducted by national qualification bodies and public registration institutions, and also enables authenticity verification of certificates.

The “FACE BADGE®” digital certificate includes the trainee’s master identity-verification photo, registered at the time of application, along with a QR code.

Authenticity can be verified by using a camera-equipped digital device (such as a smartphone, PC, or tablet) to scan the QR code and the master photo.

(*The master photo registered at the time of course application is automatically matched against the trainee’s photo, successfully authenticated during the course or examination, stored on a separate server.)
