US Patent 12112220 Authenticating a physical card using sensor data

In some implementations, a device may obtain video and/or lidar data relating to a physical card captured while the physical card is flipped from a first side of the physical card to a second side of the physical card. The device may determine an authenticity of the physical card, where the authenticity of the physical card is based at least in part on one or more physical characteristics of the physical card identifiable from the video and/or the lidar data. The one or more physical characteristics may relate to a thickness of the physical card, a length and width of the physical card, a shape of the physical card, and/or a design feature of the physical card. The device may cause, based on a determination that the physical card is authentic, information associated with the physical card to be transmitted or stored to be used in connection with a transaction.
