Degraded skin conditions and advanced forgery technologies have reduced the stability and
security of identity authentication based on external biometrics of the fingertip, including …

Optical coherence tomography (OCT), as a non-destructive and high-resolution in vivo
imaging technology, has been adapted in fingertip biometric acquisition. It measures on and …

Biometric access control systems often employ fingerprint recognition based on the analysis
of ridge patterns and minutiae. The inclusion of finer details, such as sweat pores, increases …

Fingerprints are widely used for biometric authentication, identification, and access control.
However, most current acquisition devices obtain fingerprints from the surface of the skin …

In traditional fingerprint biometrics, fingertips stained with water, dust or fake fingerprints can
lead to security issues such as false rejection and acceptance. It has been found in biology …

The most established technique for the identification at biometric access control systems is
the human fingerprint. While every human fingerprint is unique, fingerprints can be faked …

External fingerprints (EFs) based only on epidermal information are vulnerable to spoofing
attacks and non-ideal skin conditions. To solve such shortcomings, internal fingerprints (IFs) …

We propose the use of correlation mapping optical coherence tomography (cmOCT) to
deliver additional biometrics associated with the finger that could complement existing …

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive technique which can capture high-
resolution three-dimension fingerprints. The surface fingerprint, sweat glands and internal …

Physiologists have found that fingerprint patterns exist in the inner layers (viz. papillary
junction) of the skin of the fingertip. However, conventional acquisition systems do not have …
