Multi-Dimensional Authentication

Temporal QR Authentication adds a time dimension to traditional QR code security, distributing authentication data across multiple frames displayed in rapid succession. This creates an authentication mechanism that is highly resistant to cloning, replay attacks, and screen capture.

Security Benefits

Anti-Cloning Protection

Traditional QR codes can be photographed and replayed. Temporal QR authentication requires capturing multiple frames within a specific time window, making simple photography ineffective.

Replay Attack Resistance

Each temporal QR authentication session has strict time-binding with frame-specific tokens. Sessions expire quickly, and replaying captured frames from previous sessions is ineffective.

Time-Dimensional Security

Authentication operates across temporal dimensions, requiring precise timing coordination between frames. Each frame has cryptographic time-binding that creates a unique security matrix impossible to replicate without real-time access.

Device-Native Integration

Deep integration with device hardware through Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), Secure Enclave, and native biometric systems. Authentication keys are generated and stored in hardware security modules that cannot be extracted or cloned.

Hardware Binding

Authentication is tied to physical hardware via Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) or Secure Enclave, using react-native-biometrics to create device-bound keys that cannot be extracted.

Zero-PII Architecture

QuantumPass maintains a zero-PII (Personally Identifiable Information) architecture, creating anonymous accounts that link to service providers without exposing user credentials.

Frame-Based Security Architecture

Authentication data is distributed across multiple rotating QR frames, making it impossible to capture with a single photograph or screenshot.

  • 4+ unique frames required for authentication
  • 20+ FPS rotation prevents static capture
  • Cryptographic frame sequencing
  • Temporal window expiration

Implementation Examples

Basic Authentication Flow
// Complete temporal QR authentication
const temporalAuth = {
  generateFrames: (sessionId, userData) => {
    const frames = [];
    const fragmentedData = cryptoSplit(userData, 4);
    
    for (let i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
      frames.push({
        sessionId,
        frameNumber: i + 1,
        payload: fragmentedData[i],
        timestamp: Date.now(),
        signature: signFrame(fragmentedData[i])
      });
    }
    return frames;
  },
  
  collectFrames: async (frames) => {
    const collected = new Map();
    
    for (const frame of frames) {
      if (await verifyFrameSignature(frame)) {
        collected.set(frame.frameNumber, frame);
      }
    }
    
    if (collected.size >= 4) {
      return reconstructData(Array.from(collected.values()));
    }
    
    throw new Error('Insufficient valid frames');
  }
};
Web Integration

qp.renderTemporalQR('#qr-container', session.sessionId, {
  fps: 20,
  size: 300,
  onFrameChange: (frameNum) => {
    console.log(`Frame ${frameNum} displayed`);
  }
});

// Listen for authentication events
qp.on('authSuccess', (userData) => {
