Description

The invention relates to a method of biometric identification of persons
according to the hand, by which the shape of the hand is scanned, evaluated and
compared with the database of hand shapes, whereas the three-dimensional shape of
the hand is scanned, this is analysed and a three-dimensional model of the hand
is created, which is compared with the database of three-dimensional models of
hand. The invention also relates to a device for biometric identification of
persons according to the hand comprising a pad and a scanning device coupled with
a control and evaluating unit, while the pad comprises a positioning depression
in the shape of a hand, while the positioning depression is whole situated in the
field of view of the scanning device and in the area of impact of radiation from
a source of light.
