The image capture device plays a key role inngerprint authentication. In recent years, we have seen remarkable innovations in these d evices, which have red ucedthe size, loweredthe price, andimprovedthe performance. These new sensors have pavedthe way for deployment ofngerprint authentication beyondlaw enforcement applications to more widespreadpersonal authentication. This paper provides an overview ofngerprint capture devices. Sensor issues and future trends are also discussed. ? 2002 Pattern Recognition Society. Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
