Abstract

Hand geometry based biometric verification has proven to be the most suitable and acceptable biometrics trait for medium and low security applications. Hereby a new approach for the personal identification using hand images is presented. Two kinds of biometric indicators are extracted from the low-resolution hand images; (i) palmprint features, which are composed of principal lines, wrinkles, minutiae, delta points, etc., and (ii) hand geometry features which include area/size of palm, length and width of fingers. In the article we focus on feature extraction methods applied to one-sensor multimodal hand-palm biometrics system.
