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.
Frame Collection System
See how the device collects and validates multiple frames to ensure security.
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.

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
// Initialize QuantumPass SDK
const qp = new QuantumPass({
apiKey: 'your-api-key',
environment: 'production'
});
// Create authentication session
const session = await qp.createSession({
authType: 'temporal',
securityLevel: 'high'
});
// Display temporal QR code
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) => {
console.log('Authentication successful!', userData);
// Handle successful authentication
});
qp.on('authFailed', (error) => {
console.error('Authentication failed:', error);
});
Server-Side Implementation
// Node.js backend example
const express = require('express');
const QuantumPassSDK = require('@quantumpass/node-sdk');
const app = express();
const qp = new QuantumPassSDK({
secretKey: process.env.QUANTUMPASS_SECRET_KEY
});
// Create session endpoint
app.post('/auth/session', async (req, res) => {
try {
const session = await qp.createSession({
userId: req.body.userId,
sessionTimeout: 300, // 5 minutes
requiredFrames: 4
});
res.json({
sessionId: session.id,
qrFrames: session.frames,
expiresAt: session.expiresAt
});
} catch (error) {
res.status(500).json({ error: error.message });
}
});
// Verify authentication endpoint
app.post('/auth/verify', async (req, res) => {
try {
const result = await qp.verifyFrames({
sessionId: req.body.sessionId,
collectedFrames: req.body.frames,
biometricData: req.body.biometricHash
});
if (result.verified) {
res.json({
success: true,
userData: result.userData
});
} else {
res.status(401).json({
success: false,
error: 'Authentication failed'
});
}
} catch (error) {
res.status(500).json({ error: error.message });
}
});
React Native Implementation
// React Native mobile app
import { QuantumPassScanner } from '@quantumpass/react-native';
import Biometrics from 'react-native-biometrics';
const AuthScreen = () => {
const [frames, setFrames] = useState([]);
const handleQRScan = async (qrData) => {
try {
// Parse temporal QR frame
const frame = JSON.parse(qrData);
// Add to collected frames
const updatedFrames = [...frames, frame];
setFrames(updatedFrames);
// Check if we have enough frames
if (updatedFrames.length >= 4) {
await authenticateWithBiometrics(updatedFrames);
}
} catch (error) {
console.error('QR scan error:', error);
}
};
const authenticateWithBiometrics = async (collectedFrames) => {

const biometricResult = await Biometrics.simplePrompt({
