Abstract: A set of Search identification points (16) derived from an optical scan (12) of a finger are compared against File identification (18) points for the same finger. A multiple comparator (20) divides the finger image into multiple segments. The Search and File points from each segment are compared separately. A difference table (D.T.) (22) provides a proximity value Q for each search point. The D.T. is purged (28, 30) of all entries representing multiple Search points. The purge keeps those entries having the highest Q value. The purged D.T. with recalculated Q values is the basis for correcting the position of each Search point on the image plane to compensate for shift in finger position and for the variable distortion and changes that come about in a finger over time and upon successive applications of the finger to input scan (40). The corrected Search points are compared against the File points to establish a new D.T. A proximity value Q for each entry on this D.T. is calculated and a proximity value Q for the entire table is calculated. These proximity values in view of the number of entries on the difference table are used to verify identification in a scoring routine (52).

Abstract: A fingerprint enhancement system has a platen (10) with a liquid contacting and finger-touching surface (12). Two collimated interrogating light beams (30, 40) lie below and are opposite sides of the finger-touching surface. The horizontal extensions of the light beams assume an angle of approximately forty-five degrees with the finger longitudinal axis. Side surfaces of the platen are oriented normal to the incident collimated light beams prior to interrogation. The light beam modulated by the fingerprint passes to a reflecting mirror (20), imaging means (21) and a scanner (22) below platen (10). A polarizing filter lies between platen (10) and reflecting mirror (20). A second polarizing filter (23) lies above platen (10). A contrast enhancement circuit increases the modulation of the scanned fingerprint signal and automatically adjusts the level of the modulated signal without saturation. Circuit filtering eliminates spurious input signals. Finger position sensing by a light emitting diode and photo transistor is also provided.

Abstract: As a live finger (F) is rolled across a glass platen (26) in an optical scan fingerprint apparatus, a series of lights (25) turn on and off to demarcate the line along the platen (26) at which the optical scan is being taken. In this fashion, the finger (F) applied to the platen (26) can be rotated across the platen (26) at a rate that keeps sufficient track with the scan to provide a complete (nail-to-nail) full roll scan.

Abstract: A gray scale image of a fingerprint composed of a field of pixels is converted to a binary image composed of a field of pixels by a technique which takes into account the directivity of the ridge and valley structure. Three intermediate binary images are developed, one by the use of a vertical filter, one by the use of a horizonal filter and a reference image by the use of a filter which is not directionally biased. Corresponding subfields around each pixel in each of the three images are compared. If the subfield for the vertically derived image is closer to that of the reference image then is the subfield for the horizon- ally derived image, then the binary value for the pixel from the vertically derived image is used in the final image; and vice versa. In this fashion, a fourth a final binary image is derived from a combination of the vertically derived image and horizon- ally derived image which includes the best imagery from each of those two intermediate images.

Abstract: An automatic fingerprint enrollment and identification technique is provided for automatically processing an input image represented by pixels having either a one or a zero value. The automatic processing involves a series of steps in which the initial processing is a rough screening technique for eliminating a reasonable portion of the noise while passing through almost all of the minutia. As the steps proceed, the processing becomes more complex to provide a tighter screening out of noise while passing through as much of the minutia as possibe. The later steps by operating on relatively fewer minutia or anomaly points that the earlier steps can be economical though more complex so as to be more discriminate than the earlier steps. The processing provides an optimum trade off between enrolling as large a proportion of the population as possible while minimizing the number of false identification errors.

Abstract: A fingerprint image is derived from the direct optical reading of a finger by an optical and electronic scan of the finger with a beam of coherent, collimated light. The beam is shaped in the form of a slit of light which extends the length of the finger zone to be interrogated. That slit light beam is scanned across the finger in a direction perpendicular to the axis of that slit. The rays which constitute the interrogating light in the slit define an incident light beam in the form of a plane which is substantially perpendicular to the surface of the finger being interrogated. The light beam and the rest of the optical system is rotated about an axis that is substantially coincident with the axis of the finger so that this perpendicular relationship between the plane of the interrogating light beam and the surface of the finger is maintained throughout the scan.

Abstract: A finger (F) pressed against a platen (32) provides a fingerprint object which is scanned by an interrogating beam of collimated light (30) in the form of a slit and that is linearly displaced across the platen. As the slit-beam scans across the back surface of the platen, the reflected light beam is modulated. The modulated beam is imaged onto a linear array of photodiodes (12) to provide a series of output signals indicative of modulation information. The outputs of the diodes are serially interrogated at each of successive scan positions to provide a set of signals containing fingerprint information. The platen has a transparent glass base (92). A layer of transparent, compressible, resilient epoxy (94) is on the back of the glass base (92). The epoxy layer (94) has a flat back surface. A thin silver reflecting layer (96) on the back surface of the epoxy provides a flat mirrored surface to reflect the light beam. A further epoxy layer (97) on top of the silver provides mechanical filtering. A lacquer layer (99) at the back protects the platen from wear. When a finger is applied to the back surface, the ridges of the finger distort the underlying layers sufficiently so that the reflected light at the ridge zones is scattered while the reflected light at the valley zones is collimated. This difference in scatter is transformed by an imaging lens (65) to a difference in intensity at the diode array (12).
