METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR AUTHENTICATING INDIVIDUALS ON THE BASIS OF BIOMETRIC DATA

摘要

System for authenticating an individual using biometric data, such as the fingerprints represented in the form of minutiae, characterized in that it comprises at least the following elements: a fingerprint sensor (6) making it possible to sense biometric data or prints belonging to an individual and communicating with a system made up of an authentication server (1, 5), a database (2), a data comparator (3), the said database (2) containing elements representative of biometric data, the elements representative of the prints being syndromes s(w'i) and constellations c(wi), said comparator (3) receiving information arising from the database (2) and from the authentication server (1), said authentication server (1), said database (2), and the comparator (3) being physically distinct and communicating with one another, said authentication server (1, 5) comprising algorithms making it possible to extract stable information reproducible from biometric data.
