Abstract
A technique for detecting and verifying a fingerprint includes a skin resistance sensing array for translating the skin resistance of a fingertip into an electrical signal. The fingertip is moved relative to the skin resistance sensing array in a first linear direction for producing a reference trajectory signal which is stored into a memory. The fingertip is again moved relative to the skin resistance sensing array in a second linear direction for producing a sample trajectory signal. The second linear direction of movement is offset from the first linear direction of movement by a predetermined angle. A processor is provided for performing a set of functions on the reference trajectory signal and the sample trajectory signal. The sample trajectory signal is correlated with the reference trajectory signal for producing a verification signal related to the probability that the fingertip generated both the sample trajectory signal and the reference trajectory signal.
