<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fingerprint collecting device and a fingerprint collecting method which collect fingerprint images in a wide range with high accuracy. <P>SOLUTION: A fingerprint collecting device has an imaging sensor unit 111; a reference optical system 112; first to third optical systems 113a-113c; an outline detecting portion; an extracting portion; and an image uniting portion. The imaging sensor unit 111 picks up an optical image formed on a light-receiving surface. The reference optical system 112 images a reference optical image of fingers in a reference area on the light-receiving surface. The first to third optical systems 113a-113c image first to third optical images in first to third areas. The outline detecting portion detects a plane surface outline. The extracting portion extracts a reference picked up image and a part image which is an image of a part of the first picked up image, on the basis of the plane surface outline. The image uniting portion unites the reference picked up image and the part image extracted from the first picked up image to form the whole image. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
