METHOD OF BIOMETRIC AUTHENTICATION BY USING PUPIL BORDER AND APPARATUS USING THE METHOD

摘要

A method of biometric authentication based on unique information obtained from a pupil. The method includes: acquiring an image of a pupil and an iris; extracting a pupil region from the image; and generating unique biometric information by extracting a specific pattern of the pupil from the pupil region. The method performs biometric authentication by combining unique information obtained from a pupil region with unique information obtained from an iris region.
