Biometric-based palm print recognition and its applications

Abstract

Palm print recognition systems have always been an area of interest development as it is one of the commonly used biometric identification method for distinguishing between different people. The palm remains unchanged unlike the iris that will contract and it is a body part that can be easily scanned for identification. The thumb on the other hand is easier to replicate compared to the whole palm print thus palm print recognition has its own advantage compared to other biometric identification methods.
