Description of the invention (/). Detailed description The present invention relates to a high-luminance three-dimensional fingerprint reading system. The fingerprint printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs is the best proof of identity for a person. Each person's fingerprint is different and will not change during life. counterfeit. Prosecutors confirmed the identity of unknown persons, mainly using fingerprints. Most of the most confidential institutions, the identification of the pass at the doorway also uses fingerprint identification. And the traditional methods of identification are not as convenient and reliable as fingerprints. The seal is easy to be engraved, the signature can be imitated, and it is less easy to identify with the machine. The passphrase and password are easy to forget. The chip card or magnetic card will be forgotten or lost or stolen. It is foreseeable that in the future, people will pursue greater convenience and comfort, and fingerprint identification will be widely used to replace or assist the commonly used identification methods. For example, when withdrawing money at a bank, forgetting to bring a seal or a financial card, you can also allow the fingerprint reader to read your fingerprint at the counter, and compare it with the customer's fingerprint filed by the bank to withdraw money. Or in the case of online transactions, use a fingerprint reader to read the fingerprint and send it to the transaction organizer via the network to confirm the identity to ensure the security of the transaction. In the above two examples, the first case is closed and the second case is open. In the closed case, in addition to the fingerprint reading of the previous stage, the fingerprint recognition machine also includes the memory (fingerprint database) and the processing unit of the subsequent stage, and compares the read fingerprint with the fingerprint created in the fingerprint database. In the open situation, only a fingerprint reader is needed, which is connected to the main website via the network, and the fingerprint database and processing unit are only available on the main website. In both cases, the uses are very wide, especially the booming development of the Internet and e-commerce today, and the potential of fingerprint identification is endless. 4 This paper rule jade applies Chinese national standard 0: NS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) '' Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 480454 A7 _ B7 V. Description of the invention (>) Especially in recent years, The image processing technology and "area image sensor" have made great progress and can process very complex images. Fingerprint recognition is a very simple thing that can be done by today's advanced image processing technology capabilities, so it can be universalized at a low cost. The conventional fingerprint recognition device is roughly as shown in the tenth figure. In order to flatten the finger surface with a fingerprint so that the fingerprint is evenly read on a plane, the fingerprint reader (L) There is a horizontal transparent placement plate (AP) with the finger surface flat against it. [Note: In actual fingerprint readers, the light source is uniformly illuminated with the same light from around the placement plate (AP). However, for convenience, only one side and two sides are used as an example. First, the effect when only one side is illuminated will be explained. ] As shown in the figure, there is a light source (B) obliquely upward from the side of the finger so that the light shines on the finger surface on the placement plate (AP) in a direction parallel to the ΥZ plane. After being illuminated, the fingerprint image on the finger surface is imaged downward by a lens system (LS) to the lower surface image sensor (IS) (such as a CCD image sensor or CMOS image sensor). The sensor (IS) has many matrix-like pixel cells (pixels). Each cell generates a corresponding voltage signal according to the light intensity received by it, and then undergoes a conventional "binary conversion" (That is, all the pixels whose voltage is higher than a threshold value are regarded as “1”, and those lower than the threshold value are regarded as “0”, for example, a comparator is used) to change this fingerprint into a 0 and 1 The composed matrix pattern is sent to a subsequent image comparison stage and compared with a fingerprint sample (FM) stored in the fingerprint database (FB) (also stored as a matrix pattern of 0 and 1). If the read fingerprint and the stored fingerprint sample match, the image comparison level sends a confirmation signal 'After starting 5 paper sizes apply to Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specifications (210 X 297 mm) (Please read the notes on the back first Matters are on this page). • Line. 480454 A7 B7 Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 5. Description of the Invention (Clever). The final control element (such as the solenoid valve of the door latch), otherwise it will send an error signal, Causes related defense measures (such as blocking the system, issuing an alarm). However, this method of fingerprint reading has some disadvantages. It is described in detail in conjunction with the drawings. Please see the eleventh figure. The fingerprint consists of a raised ridge (R) and a concave valley $ T). In theory, the ridges (e.g. yi) are bright and the valleys (e.g. y3) are dark. Moreover, we hope that the transition area between bright and dark areas is as narrow as possible. In this way, there is a clear boundary between light and dark so that the fingerprint image obtained will have clear lines and no blur. But in fact, as shown in Figures 11 and 12A, in the mountainside (for example, y2, y4), the gray areas are not too bright or dark, which is a ambiguity. Therefore, once the analog curve of the luminance distribution in the Y direction in Figure 12 is "binary transformed", the gray area will be very different in the results due to the different thresholds VS1 and VS2 selected. . The twelfth figure B is a binary curve using the voltage 临 ^ as the threshold 値, in which the mountain belly y2, y4 is regarded as 0, and the twelfth figure C uses VS2 as the threshold 値, and y2, y4 is regarded as 1. This means that the threshold tolerance of such a conventional fingerprint reader is small. Therefore, the above-mentioned open network connection situation is not applicable. In particular, when the signal is compressed, the above-mentioned points y2 and y4 of the analog ambiguity will cause the output picture element to change and become unstable, making the compression efficiency worse. And because the error in reading is very large, repeated confirmation is often required, which will take up a lot of network connection time. It can only be used on the same fingerprint reader (that is, in the case of the closed independent system mentioned above). In addition, when the fingerprint is first created, the reader used is different from the later readers, which also causes problems. But even if you use the same fingerprint reader, it is not applicable to everyone. For example, the reflection of light from fingers of colored people is generally 6 standards applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) (please first Read the notes on the back again

Description of the invention (p). It is much less than white people, so it may appear that colored people's fingerprints are all 0, or white people's fingerprints are all 1 Meaningless matrix graphics. Ideally, the boundary between light and dark should be clear, the transition area should be as narrow as possible, and the slope of the curve should be as steep as possible, that is, the graph of light distribution versus Y should be as close to a rectangular wave shape as possible, so whether the threshold is higher or lower, the binary The graphics department is similar, that is, the threshold must have a very large tolerance, so it can be used in open networks. It can be seen from the twelfth figure A that the curve is steeper on the left side (y2) of the valley and slower on the right side (y4) of the valley, which indicates that the light source installed on the left has a better detection ability on the left side of the valley than on the valley. The detection ability on the right side of the mountain is strong, that is, the left side of the valley can get a clear boundary, and the right side is not. From the above simple analysis, we can know from this that the single effect of lighting on one side is the backlit slope lines, and the lines toward the light slope are blurred. However, in order to obtain the overall impression, the actual fingerprint reader is composed of four sides. Or at least two sides are illuminated at the same time, so the actual result is the effect of adding the left and right sides of the lighting. As shown in the thirteenth figure, there is also a light source (B2) on the right side. Although it has a strong detection ability for the dead corner of the mountainside (y4) on the right side of the valley, all the lights are left and right at the same time. "Therefore, the obvious boundary of the backlight slope is completely lost. Please see the thirteenth figure. If a light source (B1) (B2) is installed on the left and right, the relationship between the photometric and Y is as shown by the solid line K1 (B1 light source) and the dotted line K2 (B2 light source) in FIG. Show. But when the two lights are illuminated at the same time, the two curves are added to obtain a zigzag curve as shown in Figure 14B. Not only are the two edges unclear, the gap between the peaks and valleys is reduced, and the total dark area is gone. Clear, so the signal amplitude change after imaging will be smaller. The difficulty of fingerprint detection is increased, and the “amplitude” of the peak-to-valley gap becomes smaller, so the allowable error of the threshold is 7

Description of the invention (<). The margin of difference has become smaller. Therefore, the accuracy is also poor, and the stability of detection is poor. Therefore, in order to maintain the advantages of unilaterally illuminated backlight slopes, K1 and K2 must be avoided from overlapping. For this purpose, people may think of staggering the lighting time of the left and right light sources (B1) (B2) and taking two images one after the other, for example, first lighting (B1) to obtain the corresponding curve K1 of the first image. Highlight (B2) again to obtain the corresponding curve K2 of the second image acquisition, and then take the data of the backlight slope for each of them. The above boundary is blurred and the situation with low contrast can be resolved. However, this approach has other disadvantages. First, the imaging must be performed twice, so the imaging time will increase greatly, which will take up the network connection time. Second, after the first imaging, the obtained data (such as K1) must be temporarily stored in the memory for the second imaging. Compared with K2. In this way, an additional temporary memory of 100 million volumes is needed, and its capacity should cover an entire matrix surface, and the cost is considerable. Third, due to the left and right light sources (B1) (B2), the image data (ΚΙ), (K2) are Acquired at different times, if there is any finger movement between the first acquisition and the second acquisition, the accuracy of the test will be greatly reduced. Therefore, the main object of the present invention is to provide a high-definition fingerprint reader, which can use two sets of light sources located on the left and right sides of a finger to make an image at the same time to achieve an accurate reading effect without the above-mentioned disadvantages. According to the present invention, this purpose is achieved by using a color surface image sensor (such as a color CCD or color CMOS image sensor) to receive fingerprint images, and the two sets of light sources used are two different Any of the two primary color light sources (red, green, and blue light sources) is located on the left and right sides of the finger, and should be red and green LEDs. 8 _ This paper size is in accordance with Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) (please read the precautions on the back before this page) Order · Printed by the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Consumer Cooperatives 480454 A7 B7 V. Description of the Invention (L) · Each picture element of the color surface image sensor contains three primary color sub-picture elements, and only receives red light, green light and blue light respectively. For this purpose, each sub-picture element has an associated color filter. For example, the red sub-picture element is provided with a filter for filtering blue and green light, and only red light is allowed to pass through. Therefore, if we use a red LED as the light source (B1) in the thirteenth figure and a green LED as the light source (B2) in the thirteenth figure, the two LEDs can light at the same time. Because the red light of the red LED will only be absorbed by the red sub-picture element of the color surface image sensor, and the green light of the green LED will only be absorbed by its green sub-picture element, the image signals caused by the two will be output by different terminals respectively. , Will not overlap or cause a decrease in light and dark contrast, blurred edges. Therefore, the non-overlapping and complete K1 and K2 curves shown in Figure 14A can be obtained from the terminals of the red sub-picture element and the output of the green sub-picture element, respectively. As mentioned above, the skin tone of each person can be very different (especially colored people and white people), and congested red fingers and anaemic pale fingers also have different effects on the reflection of red and green light. According to another feature of the present invention, a driving circuit for automatically adjusting the total exposure amount each time lighting is provided is provided. When the colored human fingerprint is measured, the total exposure can be automatically increased due to its low reflectivity, so that the area image sensor can still receive as much light, and its output signal can be maintained in the best condition. In addition, modern technologies such as photocopying, photoengraving, and photolithography are very developed and can reach a very high resolution. Therefore, people are sometimes not careful, and their fingerprints can be forged and abused by people using the above-mentioned technologies. In order to prevent unscrupulous persons from using a forged flat fingerprint pattern to deceive the fingerprint reader, another feature of the present invention is to provide a fingerprint anti-counterfeiting method. The principle is to use this 9 (please read the precautions on the back before d write this page) if-· line.

Description of the invention (y) · The invention of this dual light source image acquisition is a "stereoscopic" pattern (that is, the signals taken from the left and right sides are slightly different), and generally cheaper fingerprint forgeries are Only the plane effect (that is, the signals taken from the left and right sides are exactly the same), so as long as a plane figure is excluded, most forgery fingerprints can be effectively prevented.

Like the tenth fingerprint reader (L), it has a transparent placement plate (AP) and a lens system (LS). Unlike the known, its face image sensor is a color face image sensor. Device (FIS), and it has two groups of light sources of different primary colors: a red LED (Br) and a green LED (Bg), which are respectively arranged below the sides of the placement board (AP). Regarding the light source (BR) (B.), I would like to add one more point here: Because human fingerprints are generally either circular or vortex, in other words, the fingerprints on the free end (finger tip) of the distal end of the finger and the joint end of the near body are not Vertical, but closer to the horizontal (as shown in the second figure). In order to make the LED light almost perpendicular to the fingerprint edge and the valley, to get the clearest boundary, there are three reds on the left and right. 11 This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) (Please read first (Notes on the back page are on this page.) Γ Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 480454 A7 B7 V. Invention Description (7), (Br1) (Br2) (Br3) or Green (Bch) (B (32) (BC3), responsible for obliquely illuminating the front, middle, and rear of the fingerprint (FA) from below, as in the case of the thirteenth figure above, the red light from the left is easier to distinguish the left edge of the valley, and the right The incoming green light is easier to distinguish the right edge of the valley, so using the left edge of red light and the right edge of green light (the method will be described later) can obtain clear three-dimensional fingerprint data. The resolution of the concave and convex surface of the fingerprint can therefore be It is greatly improved. In addition, in order to make the brightness of each part of the fingerprint (FA) uniform, the LED used should be an unfocused transparent packaged point light source, which can obtain uniform light intensity at a distance. It is necessary to prevent criminals from using photocopying or Printed fingerprints come Because the fingerprint is a three-dimensional structure, as shown in the curve IG and K2 in Figure 14A, the red LED on the left produces a red edge of the red image part (K1), and the right edge changes more slowly. The image part (K2) of the green light produced by the right edge LED is clear on the right edge, and the left edge changes more slowly. In other words, for a real three-dimensional fingerprint, the red image part and the green image part should be like the tenth. The KI and K2 of A in the four pictures are not the same. However, if a flat fingerprint photocopy sample (VF) is used to confuse them (see the third picture), since the ridge ridge and valley ridge have no three-dimensional structure, from the left to the right As a result, the brightness is exactly the same, as shown in the fourth pictures A and B, so the red image (K0) is roughly the same as the green image (K.). Just compare Kr and K. For example, use a binary Comparator), if they are roughly the same, you know that it is a fake fingerprint printed on a plane. In order to avoid unnecessary power consumption and extend the life of the LED ', this fingerprint reader is designed so that the LED will only be short when reading the fingerprint Di Qiliang 1 12 ^ Paper scale Printed in China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 x 297 mm) " ~ (Please read the note on the back?

Description of the invention (/ c). Instantaneous (for example, about 5msec ~ 10msec). The total exposure of the image sensor (FIS) is proportional to the total lighting time each time it is read. Therefore, it can be borrowed Control the LED lighting time to get the best image signal quality. As mentioned above, in order to keep the color surface image sensor (FIS) regardless of the color of the finger, it can maintain a constant total reception amount every time you take an image, so we can borrow Control the length of the LED light to match. When the light reflected from the fingerprint is weak (for example, a finger of a colored person has half the reflectivity of a white person), the LED lighting time can be doubled. For this purpose, the red LEDs (BR1) (BR0 (BR3) and green (Bch) (Bc32) (B〇3) can each be connected to a clicker (MM), and the two clickers accept a spike detection When the red and green light received by the image sensor (FIS) is weaker, it outputs VR, V. The weaker it is, the weaker the signal sent by the spike detector to each clicker is. Strong, making the clicker (MM) each triggering period longer. The fifth figure shows a block circuit diagram of the fingerprint reader of the present invention. As mentioned earlier, the circuit element mainly has three red and green LEDs (each of which is a light emitting element). B ^) (BR2) BR3) (Bcn) (Bcn) (B〇3), receiving element (color surface image sensor: FIS), binary unit (BE), anti-counterfeit unit (VFS), light quantity adjustment unit (LR). In addition, like a conventional CCD device, a timing generator is connected to the CCD and the rear stage (NS) to synchronize the two. Three red LEDs should be connected in series, as are three green LEDs. This way the circuit is simpler and the currents are exactly the same. As mentioned above, in each image element (FIS) of the area image sensor, the signal Vr of its red sub-picture element and the signal V of its green sub-picture element. Each is sent to a comparator (KR), (K.) and a threshold 値 VSR, Vs.

The red and green matrix graphic data (h) (h) that becomes 0 or 1. The two signals ("0 (7.)" Are then sent to the one and gate (IL) to make the edge of the fingerprint clearer (this will be explained later). As mentioned earlier, if a forged fingerprint on a plane is read, the signal VR = V. That is, therefore, an inverter is sent to an AND gate (U2) -input, and h is fed to the other input of (U2), and the output of the AND gate is always 0, so Countermeasures can be made at the backstage (NS) to block the system. If there is no forgery, the backstage processes and compresses the signal in the traditional way (and temporarily stores it as a transmission buffer) to send the fingerprint to Closed or open system for identification or archiving. As mentioned earlier, the light quantity adjustment unit (LR) can be equipped with a clicker (MM) for each of the red and green LEDs, connected to the base of a transistor. During the trigger of the polarizer, the LED is turned on to emit light. In this way, the feedback of the output (VR) (V.) of the surface image sensor (FIS) can be used to keep the total exposure constant at each reading As mentioned above, according to the present invention, the thresholds Vsr, Vsa for binarizing the output signal (VR) (VC) can have a large allowable error. In other words, as The thresholds used for the dualization: Vsr and Vs0 are selected higher or higher, and the results Pi are the same. See the sixth graphs A and B and the seventh graphs A to E. The sixth graphs A and B are respectively The signals Vr and V. However, they are similar to the curves L and K2 in the fourteenth figure a. If we use a high threshold Vsiu and a low threshold Vsu for Vr, respectively, we get the seventh chart A, The binary combination of B is PR1 and PR2. For V. Using a high threshold 値 Vcn and a low threshold 値 Vc2, we get the KG1 of the seventh graph c, D.

Description of the Invention (/ l) 'K C2) Any combination passed and U 1' the result K 1 is the same (seventh figure E). In other words, Both the better left edge of Vr and the better right edge of Vb will be left. This shows that the present invention has a large allowable error in the setting of the threshold value. The flow chart in FIG. 8 is used to explain Describe the operation process of the present invention. The fingerprint reader is activated when it is placed on its placement board by a fingertip. The left and right two rows of red and green LEDs — all cast light. First check in the unit LR: reflected from the fingerprint to Whether the light of the FIS is sufficient, if not, increase the trigger period of the clicker (MM) to increase the exposure of the FIS. Secondly, check whether the fingerprint is forged in the unit (VFS). If it is forged, an anti-counterfeit signal can be sent to After the NS, take relevant measures (such as notifying the police or blocking the system). If it is confirmed that the fingerprint is not forged, read the fingerprint. In the closed system, it is sent for comparison with the fingerprint samples stored in the system. In the case of an open system, the fingerprint database sent to the website via the network for comparison, and then the other party sends back a confirmation signal. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economics The present invention is only made as a fingerprint reader (L '), not a fingerprint identification machine, so some complicated memory, processor and other components in the subsequent stage are not needed. Therefore, it can be used as a mouse or a peripheral device of a website. Because of its simple structure and low cost, it can be widely used or sold as an accessory to a computer. It can be connected to a computer or any closed information system (CS) using an appropriate interface. As shown in the ninth figure, it can also be connected to the fingerprint database (FB) on the website through an open network (N) through an Internet interface (including transmit / receive circuits) (NI).

Description of the invention). It is practically desirable to make the imaging mouse generally flat in shape, so the design of the vertical light path in the first figure A will make the structural height (Z direction) higher. Therefore, according to the first figure B, a mirror can be added to the light path to turn the light path by an angle (for example, 90 °, but it is not necessary to do so). In this way, the height can be greatly reduced. Finally, the anti-counterfeit detection (VFS) of the present invention can not only effectively identify fake fingerprint photocopy patterns on general planes, but even if the photocopying fingerprint pattern is used for photolithographic etching, a corresponding fingerprint-like surface is made. The concave-convex structure can still be detected by the present invention, because the structure produced by the photolithography technology is as shown in Figure C, the two sides are almost vertical or even more than 90 degrees, so when the left and right light sources are illuminated, the signal heat is still flowing and the plane fingerprint The graphics are similar, namely Kr and K. Roughly the same. Human fingerprints are slope-shaped as shown in Figures 11 and 14 on the mountain belly. Suitable microstructures are difficult to create with ordinary processing techniques. In addition, the present invention is not limited to using only two-color light, and a third color light (for example, a blue LED) can also be used at the same time, and the set position can be in a place where there are no red and green LEDs. For example, the red, green, and blue light sources are separated by 120. Set around the bottom of the placement plate (AP). Since different colors of light do not interfere and overlap with each other, there are many possible arrangements, so I will not repeat them, as long as there is no left and right angle range (such as 60 ° left and right) of a color light source (such as a red LED) directly opposite to 180 ° The same-color light source and the area it illuminates can overlap to weaken its contrast. Where such a three-color light source is used, all three sub-pixel outputs of the color CCD are used. The fingerprints read by the present invention have clear boundaries and few transitional gray areas. We know that gray primitives take much longer to transmit than black and white primitives. 16 (Please read the notes on the back before --- this page:
