Fingerprint
• Fingerprints are graphical flow-like ridges present on human fingers.
• It is made of a series of ridges and valleys on the surface of the finger. • Patterns that arise in ridges are known as Minutiae.
FINGERPRINT RECOGNITION
• One of the forms of biometrics used to identify an individual and verify their identity. • It refers to the automated method of verifying a match between two human fingerprints.
• Finger printing takes an image of a person's fingertips and records its characteristics. • Generally the biometric systems operates in two modes: Verification Identification
Verification : It validates a person’s identity by comparing captured biometric data with readymade template. Identification : It helps to recognize a person’s identity by performing matches against multiple fingerprint biometric templates.
Applications
COMMERCIAL GOVERNMENT FORENSIC Corpse Identification Criminal Investigation, Terrorist Identification, Parenthood determination, Missing Children, etc. Computer Network Logon, National ID card, Electronic Data Security, Correctional Facilities, E-Commerce, Driver’s License, Internet Access, Social Security, ATM, Credit Card, Welfare Disbursement, Physical Access Control, Border Control, Cellular Phones Passport Control, etc. Personal Digital Assistant, Medical Records, Distance Leaning, etc.
Advantages
1. Has a very high accuracy rate.
2. It is the most economical biometric PC user authentication technique. 3. It is one of the most developed biometrics. 4. Easy to use.
5. Small storage space required
6. Standardized
DISADVANTAGES
1. It may be intrusive for some people. 2. It can make mistakes with the dryness or
