RE: The Fascinating Fingerprint Technology

in #science7 years ago (edited)

Thanx... Check my funny post today.. :) btw my father in law fingerprint is problematic everytime... It really drastically changes n doesn't gets authentified.. I think this is drawback of fingerprint technology.

Sort:  

That may be as a result of oil, dirt, or wet on fingers/scanner surface. Some may due to wear too, the ridges and valleys may no longer be as prominent as they used to, giving the scanner a harder time to make a match. I will check your post now.

Haha oil or dirt😋😂

Yeah, they are the usual suspect when this happens. It somehow makes it hard for the scanner to get a good digital image of the fingerprint. A dry clean hand works best. Other times it may just be the fingers have worn so much with use/age that it is not as it was before.
