Abstract :
In this paper, the compatibility of fingerprint images captured with mobile cameras (touch-less) with existing touch-based commercial fingerprint verification software VeriFinger SDK is investigated. The touch-less fingerprint images taken with mobile cameras are different with the fingerprint images captured from touch-based scanners. The research in this paper shows that the commercial fingerprint verification software VeriFinger SDK can load the photographed fingerprint images, and can extract minutiae from the photographed images. Furthermore, the minutiae matching of a sample against a reference have been successfully performed based on the photographed fingerprint images using VeriFinger SDK. This research result will make the mobile fingerprint verification more interoperable which has significant contribution to the security of m-commerce applications.
