2 Basics of fingerprint recognition

What is fingerprint recognition?

– Fingerprint is an individual’s own biometric information

and does not change throughout his/her life. Fingerprint
recognition is a technology that verifies or identifies an
individual using such fingerprint information.

– Free from the risk of theft or loss, fingerprint recognition

technology is being widely used in security systems
replacing PIN or cards.

Process of fingerprint recognition

– Fingerprint consists of ridges and valleys. Ridge is a flow of

protruding skin in a fingerprint while valley is a hollow
between two ridges. Each individual has different pattern
of ridges and valleys and finger recognition makes use of
such originality and uniqueness of these patterns.

– Fingerprint sensor generates 2-dimentional fingerprint

image using different technology. According to the sensing
technology, fingerprint sensors are classified into optical,
capacitive, or thermal.

– Fingerprint template is a collection of numeric data

representing the features of a fingerprint. Fingerprint
templates are saved inside the memory of BioStation and
used for identification.

Secure way to protect personal information

– To avoid privacy concern, the fingerprints are not save

itself. It is impossible to reconstruct a fingerprint image
from a fingerprint template which is just numeric data of
the features of a fingerprint.

3 How to place a finger

Bosch fingerprint products show an outstanding recognition
performance regardless of the user’s fingerprint skin condition
or the way of fingerprint positioning. However, following tips
are recommended to get more optimal fingerprint recognition
performance.

Select a finger to enroll

– It is recommended to use an index finger or a middle

finger.
– Thumb, ring or little finger is relatively more difficult to

place in a correct position.

How to place a finger on a sensor

– Place a finger such that it completely covers the sensor

area with maximum contact.
– Place core part of a fingerprint to the center of a sensor.

– People tend to place upper part of a finger.

– The core of a fingerprint is a center where the spiral of

ridges is dense.

– Usually core of fingerprint is the opposite side of the

lower part of a nail.

– Place a finger such that the bottom end of a nail is

located at the center of a sensor.

– If a finger is placed as in the right picture, only a small area

of a finger is captured. So it is recommended to place a

finger as shown in the left picture.

fingerprint smoothly regardless of the conditions of a
finger skin. However, in case a fingerprint is not read well
on the sensor, please refer to the followings tips.
– If a finger is stained with sweat or water, scan after

wiping moisture off.

– If a finger is covered with dust or impurities, scan

after wiping them off.

– If a finger is way too dry, place after blowing warm

breath on the finger tip.

Tips for fingerprint enrollment

– In fingerprint recognition, enrollment process is very

important. When enrolling a fingerprint, please try to place
a finger correctly with care.

– In case of low acceptance ratio, the following actions are

recommended.
– Delete the enrolled fingerprint and re-enroll the

finger.
– Enroll the same fingerprint additionally.
– Try another finger if a finger is not easy to enroll due

to scar or worn-out.

– For the case when an enrolled fingerprint cannot be used

due to injury or holding a baggage, it is recommended to
enroll more than two fingers per user.
