Biometric authentication for secured transaction using finger vein technology

In this Paper, Finger vein authentication is used to ensure the user identity. Finger vein technology, is one of the fastest growing method in the Biometrics. Vein patterns are different for each and ever person also they are hidden under the skins surface. Since they are situated inside forgery is extremely difficult. Near IR rays are passed through the finger and the hemoglobin pigments inside the blood blocked the rays and the patterns of vein are captured at the other side via Image sensor. HausdThorff distance technique is used to extract the Skelton pattern from the vein image. This paper discusses the utilization of Minutiae feature points in the verification tasks as geometric representation of vein pattern shape. Also discusses the technology and applications of finger vein authentication, as well as the importance of authentication in its future development.
