Abstract

See full text

In a fingerprint input apparatus used to detect an image of a fingerprint, light is emitted towards a finger which is placed on an image detecting surface of a prism. An incident angle of light on the image detecting surface is less than a critical angle. An image sensor detects light which has been diffused by the fingerprint and directed towards the image sensor.
