Liveness Detection based on Fine Movements of the Fingertip Surface

Martin Drahanský, Ralf Nötzel and Wolfgang Funk

The 7th IEEE Information Assurance Workshop (IAWorkshop 2006)
West Point, New York, USA, June 21-23, 2006

Abstract

We propose a novel method for fingerprint liveness detection, which is based on the analysis of fine movements of the fingertip surface, which are induced by volume changes due to the blood flow. Our method can be implemented in combination with standard optical fingerprint scanners. We present some background information on fingerprint liveness detection together with the results of small scale experiments to verify already proposed methods for liveness detection based on skin temperature and skin resistance. Two different possible implementations of our new method are presented and initial experiences with our test setup are presented. We also outline how we will proceed to further investigate the feasibility of the proposed method.
