Fingerprint Biometrics Authentication on Smart Card
Yuhanim Hani Yahaya, Mohd Rizal Mohd Isa, Mohammad Aziz · 2009
Fingerprint matching for user authentication is becoming widely used in many applications. Smart cards are also being used heavily in identification applications. It is now required to combine both technologies so fingerprints can be matched on the smart card. This paper presents combination on two security components which are the fingerprint recognition and smart card. The smart card plays a data storage for storing the cardholder’s fingerprint data. The card holder is required to scan his/her fingerprint on a the card for matching. This research proposes a framework for user identification and authentication using fingerprints and smart cards.
