— The demand for simple, convenient and high security authentication systems protecting private information is rising with the development of improved consumer electronic devices. In existing systems cards, pin numbers and passwords are used for authentication. However theft of cards and guessing of pin numbers and passwords by exploiters is a serial threat. Hence the need to protect private information by means of biometric solutions is very essential. The proposed system finger vein recognition system is a biometric authentication system. The maximum curvature method of feature extraction used here extracts the centrelines without being affected by fluctuations in vein width and brightness. The results of processing are sent using GSM to owners or administrators. The system can be used for application such as bank ATM identification and verification, automatic door locking control systems and automated attendance register system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
