Abstract

Biometrics is the electronic recognition of individuals achieved through a process of extracting, and then verifying, features which are unique to that individual. This field is rapidly evolving technology that has to be widely adopted in a broad range of applications. Many methods have been studied such as extraction of the facial features, the voice, the vein and even a person's signature. Among biometrics, a hand veins provide large, robust, stable, hidden biometric features. Hand vein patterns have been proven to be absolutely unique by Cambridge Consultants Ltd. Because of this advantage, hand vein recognition are recently developing field in the field of a security.
