A fingerprint authentication mobile phone based on sweep sensor

With the advancement of mobile technology, mobile phones can store significant amount of sensitive and private information. The security issue of mobile phones becomes an important field to investigate. This paper proposes a prototype of fingerprint authentication mobile phone based on sweep sensor MBF310. The prototype is composed of the front-end fingerprint capture sub-system and the back-end fingerprint recognition system. A sweep fingerprint sensor MBF310 is used to fit the request of the mobile phone in the field of the size, cost, and power consumption. The performance of the proposed prototype is evaluated on the database built by the sweep fingerprint sensor. The EER is 4.23%, and the average match time of the prototype is about 4.5 seconds.
