Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent a user from forgetting a password or missing it by recognizing the fingerprint of the palm of his hand put on a mouse tablet as the password. CONSTITUTION:When registering the password, the fingerprint is read by pushing any one of keys while putting the palm of the hand on a mouse tablet 2 having a fingerprint reading function. Next, the read fingerprint is converted to a data by a central processing unit 5 equipped with a data converting function and the converted data is registered on the password file of a storage device 4. On the other hand, in the case of log-in, the fingerprint is read by the master tablet 2 similarly to the case of registering the password and converted to the data by the central processing unit 5 and afterwards, the data is collated with the password file in the storage device 4. When the data is coincident, log-in is permitted. Thus, the password is prevented from being embezzled or forgotten.
