Fingerprint Validated Mailing System

Abstract

Fingerprint matching is the process used to determine whether two sets of fingerprint Ridge detail come from the same finger. There exist multiple algorithms that do Fingerprint matching in many different ways. Some methods involve matching minutiae Points between the two images, while others look for similarities in the bigger structure of the fingerprint .In order to protect users of computer systems and to secure network-based transactions, demand is in- creasing for improved user authentication procedures to establish the identity of an actual user and to bar access to a terminal to anyone who is unauthorized. Among various modalities in biometrics, such as fingerprints, face, iris, etc., fingerprints are the most widely used and have the longest history in real- world law enforcement applications. Stable, reliable and highly accurate identification software is currently available even for use on personal computers. Fingerprint sensors can be made small and thin enough to be implemented easily on small computers and even on pocket-sized terminals. Fingerprint as a password is a good layer of security added to the mailing accounts which will reduce the attacks of intruders. The scanner that will be used in this project is the Fingerprint Reader. The primary problem in using this particular scanner comes from the security features. The signal caring all the information from the fingerprint scan is encrypted, and the biggest challenge will come from deciphering this signal. Another major challenge of this project will be understanding the methods used to analyze the information from the scan. In this project we propose a method for fingerprint matching b
