There are four types of fingerprint scanners: [7] optical scanners, capacitance scanners, ultrasonic scanners, and thermal scanners. The basic function of every type of scanner is to obtain an image of a person's fingerprint and find a match for it in its database. The measure of the fingerprint image quality is in dots per inch (DPI). [8]
Iris scanner in action to identify people. A biometric device is a security identification and authentication device. Such devices use automated methods of verifying or recognising the identity of a living person based on a physiological or behavioral characteristic.
Optical scanners take a visual image of the fingerprint using a digital camera. Capacitive or CMOS scanners use capacitors and thus electric current to form an image of the fingerprint. Ultrasound fingerprint scanners use high frequency sound waves to penetrate the epidermal (outer) layer of the skin.
The Encryption fingerprint template is encrypted using the palm vein key via XOR operations. This encrypted Fingerprint is hidden within the face image using steganographic techniques. Enrollment and Verification for the Biometric data (Fingerprint, palm vein, face) are captured, encrypted, and embedded into a face image.

Touch ID is an electronic fingerprint recognition feature designed and released by Apple Inc. that allows users to unlock devices, make purchases in the various Apple digital media stores (App Store, iTunes Store, and Apple Books Store), and authenticate Apple Pay online or in apps.
The decision by the Brazilian government to adopt fingerprint-based biometrics was spearheaded by Dr. Felix Pacheco at Rio de Janeiro, at that time capital of the Federative Republic. Dr. Dr. Pacheco was a friend of Dr. Juan Vucetich , who invented one of the most complete ten-print classification systems in existence.
The fourth product is the most advanced of the group, and while it is not touchless, there is no contact with the scanner, just with an "optical scanning area." A list of nine "contactless fingerprint technologies that are worth noting" is part of the report. Of the top three, the first closed in 2011.
