Abstract
The purpose of this research is twofold. The first is to develop the measures for evaluating performance of fingerprint sensor modules quantitatively and objectively. The second is to present the methodology for evaluating compatibilities among disparate fingerprint sensors. This paper focuses on the performance evaluation not of fingerprint authentication algorithm but of fingerprint sensors. Presented in this paper are several indicators and their measuring schemes such as the actual resolution of fingerprint images, the level of distortion by horizontal and vertical resolutions of fingerprint image, the intensity distribution for various illuminating conditions. Nine commercial sensor modules have been tested and the test results are expressed by using 95% confidence interval based on 50 acquired fingerprint images. The experimental results are compared with the manufacturer's sensor specification.
