Abstract

See full text

The invention provides a movable cover for a finger receiving surface of an optical platen in a fingerprint imaging device. A heater incorporated into the platen cover applies controlled heat to the finger receiving surface when the cover is closed over the platen. Maintaining the finger receiving surface within a selected temperature range that is at about skin temperature helps to inhibit condensation of moisture from a subject's fingers onto the finger receiving surface.
