Biometrics-based authentication is a method of personal identification that has some advantages over the password and object-based ones, mainly for the user, who doesn't need to carry or memorize anything. However, this kind of identification is also subject to problems. Besides the technology-related possibilities of fraud, such as system invasion, database corruption or algorithm injection, some of the common used bio-metric features can be faked. Furthermore, most cases of false rejection are related to the quality of the acquired sample. This paper proposes a multimodal bio-metric authentication method which incorporates the use of dynamic features of the human reflex and the iris pattern recognition for a better performance. A prototype system has been implemented and tested with 59 volunteers. Experimental results presented an EER of 2.44%.
