Abstract

More secure and convenient personal identification systems are needed in many places. Biometrics, such as a retina, voice, fingerprint etc., is a solution for these requests. We propose a new personal identification system, which uses fingerprint image and micromechanical key. This system provides a more convenient method for users and keeps high-level security. This paper describes the system structure and hardware specifications. Also, we explain a fabrication method of these system components by MEMS techniques. We simulated the fabrication processes to make components of the system. Then we made a prototype of the micromechanical key
