This project lets you build a fingerprint-based Biometric Authentication system which can allow or deny access
By building this project, get exposed to biometric sensors (fingerprint scanners), storing of biometric patterns, Arduino and LCD display and also about Arduino programming in this project. Learn and Build this project with Skyfi Labs, for more info please visit https://goo.gl/oQgIpC.

Editor's Notes
Every human has some unique features of their own. Those uniqueness is measured for security applications known as biometric techniques. The parameter may be a physical appearance or else the behavior.
Biometric is classified into two types: Physical and behavioral characteristics. Physical characteristics are the unique feature in human body as shown.
In This method the behavior of a people is used as an identification.
arch: The ridges enter from one side of the finger, rise in the center forming an arc, and then exit the other side of the finger.
loop: The ridges enter from one side of a finger, form a curve, and then exit on that same side.
whorl: Ridges form circularly around a central point on the finger.
The ridge ending is the point at which a ridge terminates. Bifurcations are points at which a single ridge splits into two ridges. Short ridges (or dots) are ridges which are significantly shorter than the average ridge length on the fingerprint.
It is the basic schematic of all kind of biometric system. The sensor is the input unit may contain scanner, camera, microphone etc to capture the identification. Pre processing involve in filtering the useful data from the measured quantity.
