Date Nov. 6, 1986.A method of authenticating a person by comparing information from a currently taken skin-pattern with stored information from a previously taken skin-pattern is characterized in that the currently taken skin-pattern is produced on a contact surface, an image of the print of the skin pattern on the contact surface is projected onto a photo-detector device (20), the intensity variations of the print image in at least one region thereof impinging on the photo-detector device is assessed in digital form in a multiplicity of different sub-regions of the or each said region to create (in unit 21) a first digital signal train, a second digital train is derived from the stored skin pattern information (in store 23) and the first and second signal trains are compared (in 24) to determine the degree of coincidence therebetween, an assessment of the determined degree being used to decide (on indicator 27) whether the currently-taken and stored skin patterns are sufficiently similar to authenticate the person.
