BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The field of the invention is related to preventing the fingerprint identification machine from being identified by the optical finger ~ the latent finger; the image surface of the wheel-in device: The lurking finger means that the gate is locked in a Pei-style way, and the pattern of the image is explained to explain the principle of the light map. An image is aligned when there is no = the identification mechanism has been widely used in the system.

It is necessary to classify them into two different types: one type === grain type is a non-optical type. Use an optical fingerprint wheel to enter two types of clothing. Fingers placed on a prism = finger-jackets on the top of the finger) are reflected in the pattern of fingerprints, and the input image is compared with the pre-stored image. Fingerprint input devices are mainly classified as absorption type and scattering type. The schematic diagram of 1 shows a type of absorption type fingerprint input / °; it contains-backlight 112, one hundred and three hundred and ten and one relocation mirror: iron Detector 1 1 6 and an image processor 1 2 5.

The image sensor 116 is an element that outputs an electrical signal corresponding to the total amount of input light, such as a ccd or CMOS sensor, which is well known to those skilled in the art. The inclined surface of the three-dimensional 110 is one The image plane, and the inner surface of the image plane 1 1 8 causes total reflection

Description of the invention (2) Total reflection surface. ^ At the time when there is an input pattern, the light emitted from the backlight Π 2 is totally reflected from the inside of the image plane of the 稜鏡 1 1 〇 at the time when the image is incident on the image plane 1 18, and enters the shirt image through the lens i 丨 4. Test ^ § 1 1 6. If you place your finger on the image plane, the light shines on the indentation in the fingerprint, and a total reflection is generated from the inner surface of the image plane π 8. This reaches the scene. The image sensing is 1 1 6 because of the fingerprint. The indentation of the plane did not make contact with the: Haiying surface. In comparison, the light irradiated to the ridge of the fingerprint does not have total reflection from the inner surface of the image plane 1 1 8 because only a part of the light reaches the image sensor 116. Therefore, the amount of light incident on the image sensor π 6 will have different results depending on the position of the depression or ridge of the fingerprint. As a result, the image perception / 1 1 6 will be different due to the fingerprint pattern. Degree of electrical signal. The image processor 1 2 5 converts the output value of the image sensor π 6 into a digital signal, so the fingerprint pattern is recognized. 2A and 2B are schematic diagrams showing the operation principle of a scattering-type fingerprint input device. The fingerprint input device of FIG. 2A includes a backlight 212, a prism 210, a lens 2 1 4 and an image sensor 2 1 6. The structure of the image sensor is similar to the image sensor in FIG. However, 稜鏡 2 10 is stepped, not triangular. Unlike the absorption type shown in FIG. 1, the light is incident from the backlight 211 into the image plane 218 of the chirp 210 in a manner far smaller than a right angle or a critical angle. Therefore, a person who irradiates the light under the fingerprint without touching the image plane will penetrate the image plane 2 1 8 and will not reach the image sensor 2 1 6. At the same time, the light that hits the ridge of the fingerprint is scattered by the ridge. The scattered light is incident on

Example Figure 2B shows the operation principle of another lens input device. In FIG. 2a, the light irradiated to the concave portion of the fingerprint penetrates the image plane 3 11 and will reach the image sensor 3 1 6. The apricot irradiated on the ridge of the fingerprint is scattered out by the same principle. However, the difference lies in the use of a prism or a change in the position of the backlight 312. Using temple waist triangle type In the example of the absorption type fingerprint input device, the fingerprint receives light. Therefore, the ridge displayed on the image sensor is a dark image and the concave image is a bright image. However, in the example of a scattering-type finger = 钤 image, light is scattered off the ridges of the fingerprint. Therefore, the fingerprint image displayed on the% ^ device is a bright image on the spine, and the sensor is a light image, so the = part of the absorption type image input device is dark and completely opposite. In order to simplify the processing and comparison of fingerprint images, the input methods are different and the display on the computer monitor is generated based on avoiding dark and transitional states. Examples of scattering fingerprint input devices are displayed on the bright-view Is of the image. Inverted image. In particular, although the actual fingerprint image lacking i on the computer monitor is = j in the ridge of the fingerprint, it is not a dark image in the recess of the image fingerprint. On the other hand, the gray scale between the number of recesses 4 is an example of an absorption type fingerprint input. It is quite high, such as one. However, in the example of the optical fingerprint wheel-in device, it is in contact with the pattern recognition device, and leaves a contaminated material, which leaves a latent fingerprint on the finger. If the light is on the fingerprint recognition surface from the outside, rather than from the backlight, especially when a particular shot is shot to a reflection = clothing 4, the image feels rigid.

It is a latent fingerprint and a latent fingerprint. ~ Is very similar. FIG. 3C shows that in order to solve the problem of misidentification, it compares the method used in the image storage technology of someone's last input with the stored image. For example, the newly entered image is determined as one. The latent finger λ solid image storage is very similar, then it is considered to be consistent with each other, or when the two-finger scripture (the location of a specific point in the text). The understandable patterns in each other overlap with each other. This method still has a latent indication that the pattern will change as the nephew is read by the image sensor and therefore cannot be changed on a fairly accurate basis. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Identifies a latent fingerprint. The design concept of the present invention is a latent fingerprint generated when a back-optical type 3 fingerprint irradiated onto a fingerprint is input into the device light. Secondary conduction can be detected due to external, so the purpose of the present invention is to identify the detected fingerprint, Doufang = a type of Pei identifying the latent fingerprint on the-image obtained by external = :: The backlight illuminates the image surface 丨 the latent fingerprint detected by Xianyuan. him page 10 528989 V. Description of the invention (5) In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for identifying a latent fingerprint in an optical fingerprint input device. The method includes the following steps: the backlight is not illuminated under the image plane To obtain an image; to detect whether a fingerprint exists from the obtained image; and if detected, to identify whether the fingerprint is a latent fingerprint detected by an external light source.

本發明中也提供一種用於在光學指紋輸入裝置中辨認 一潛伏指紋的裝置,該裝置包含:背光控制機構,用於控 制該背光的關斷及導通;攝像機構,用於在沒有將背光照 射到映像面的情況下,得到一指紋影像;指紋偵測機構, 用於從該攝像機構所得到的影像中偵測是否存在一指紋; 以及指紋辨認機構,如果由該指紋偵測機構偵測到指紋的 話,則辨認該指紋是否為由一外部光源所偵測得到的潛伏 指紋。 在本發明中用於辨認一潛伏指紋的方法及裝置中,得 到一影像中整個畫面的方法可視為得到一影像的方法。在 背光的"關斷”狀態下,得到影像的整個畫面,且儲存在一 記憶體中,使得可以對該儲存的影像偵測到是否存在一潛 伏指紋。The invention also provides a device for recognizing a latent fingerprint in an optical fingerprint input device. The device includes: a backlight control mechanism for controlling the turning off and on of the backlight; and an imaging mechanism for not lighting the backlight. A fingerprint image is obtained under the condition of being on the mapping surface; a fingerprint detection mechanism is used to detect whether a fingerprint exists from the image obtained by the camera mechanism; and a fingerprint recognition mechanism, if detected by the fingerprint detection mechanism If it is a fingerprint, it is identified whether the fingerprint is a latent fingerprint detected by an external light source. In the method and device for identifying a latent fingerprint in the present invention, the method of obtaining the entire picture in an image can be regarded as the method of obtaining an image. In the "off" state of the backlight, the entire picture of the image is obtained and stored in a memory, so that it is possible to detect whether there is a latent fingerprint on the stored image.

但是使用上述方法浪費相當多的時間,以得到整個影 像的畫面,據以辨認一潛伏指紋。因此,如果應用照射背 光而得到一部份的潛伏指紋,且使用該影像的部份畫面而 辨認一潛伏指紋的話,則可以節省下相當多的時間。 在此,當手指相當小,或者是當手指與映像面的下方 接觸時,需要得到從指紋影像的尖端算起約1 / 4到1 / 2的指However, using the above method wastes a lot of time to get a picture of the entire image, thereby identifying a latent fingerprint. Therefore, if a part of the latent fingerprint is obtained by applying the backlight, and a part of the image is used to identify a latent fingerprint, a considerable amount of time can be saved. Here, when the finger is quite small, or when the finger is in contact with the lower side of the image plane, it is necessary to obtain a finger of about 1/4 to 1/2 of the finger from the tip of the fingerprint image.

Description of the invention (6) Grain image. At the same time, a fixed window (w i n d o w i n g) function is provided to receive an image in only a part of the area in the image sensor according to the type of image. Therefore, when using this type of image sensor, it is possible to identify whether a fingerprint is detected by selecting an intermediate part of the image that clearly reflects the fingerprint as needed. The way to detect the presence of fingerprints is to use a fingerprint detection mechanism. The fingerprint detection mechanism includes calculating the sum of the differences between the gray levels corresponding to the obtained image, comparing the calculated total value of the gray levels with a predetermined reference value; and if the total value of the gray levels of the γ fruit is less than At the reference value, it is recognized whether a fingerprint has been detected. In particular, when an image has been obtained in the π-off π state of the backlight, and a fingerprint can be clearly detected, the gray scale on the X-axis (or Υ-axis) can be in a very wide range. Within the range, and based on the change, the detected fingerprint is identified, and whether the fingerprint is a latent fingerprint detected by an external light source. The method of identifying latent fingerprints is to sum up the differences in the gray levels of adjacent pixels. This technique can be easily performed by those skilled in the art. In addition to the methods described above, another method for detecting the presence of fingerprints is to calculate the sum of the differences between the gray levels corresponding to the obtained image, and compare the calculated total of the gray levels with a predetermined reference value. ; And if the total value of the gray levels is less than the reference value, identifying whether a fingerprint has been detected. Another method that can detect the presence of a fingerprint is to calculate the average and dispersi value of the gray scale corresponding to the image obtained; and if the calculated average is less than a first reference value, And

Description of the invention (7) If the calculated divergence value is greater than a second reference value, it is determined that a fingerprint has been detected. Other methods including this method are also well known to those skilled in the art. However, when using the above method, an image can be obtained without having to illuminate a backlight on the image surface, and the user cannot determine whether the fingerprint input device is operating. in. Moreover, it is also possible that the latent fingerprint recognition mechanism lightly recognizes that the fingerprint is not a latent / fingerprint in the absence of an incident external light source, and when the external light is irradiated into the τ when the backlight is illuminated and the fingerprint image is obtained, The fingerprint is mistaken for a biological fingerprint. To solve this problem, another method has been proposed to obtain an image by illuminating the backlight, and when a fingerprint is detected, the backlight is turned off to obtain the image. If a fingerprint is detected in this state, it is recognized as a backlight. Otherwise ', the fingerprint is considered to be a biological fingerprint. In this example, the method for identifying a latent fingerprint includes the following steps: illuminating the backlight on the image surface; when a fingerprint has been detected from the obtained image, the backlight is turned off and an image is obtained, and when the When a fingerprint is detected in the π-off state of the backlight, the detected fingerprint is identified as a latent fingerprint determined by an external light source. In this example, the device for recognizing a latent fingerprint includes: a backlight control mechanism for controlling the on and off of the backlight; and a camera mechanism for controlling the backlight without illuminating the backlight to the image plane. The fingerprint image is obtained under the circumstances; and the fingerprint detection mechanism is used to detect whether a fingerprint exists from the image obtained by the camera_structure; wherein if the fingerprint detection mechanism has detected the fingerprint, the camera mechanism obtains it again.

Description of the invention (9) The best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described below, please refer to the drawings. In the following description, in order to prevent the reader from reading details not related to the present invention, well-known functions and architectures will not be described in detail. The flowchart of FIG. 4 shows a method for identifying a latent fingerprint in the present invention, and the block diagram of FIG. 12 is a function of the device for identifying a latent fingerprint according to the present invention. For convenience, the method of the present invention is used to illustrate the method. If a person who wishes to perform authentication touches an image surface with one finger ', the backlight control mechanism 503 turns off the backlight [step S 1 0 1]. Then the imaging mechanism 505 obtains the image of the fingerprint [step s103], and the fingerprint detection mechanism ^ 07 detects whether there is a fingerprint [step s105]. As mentioned above, if f is in a state where η is turned off, and a fingerprint is detected, then the identification mechanism 5 009 recognizes whether or not a one-volt fingerprint is detected due to an external light source. Step S 1 0 9]. If any fingerprint is detected by π 1 in the "off" state of the backlight, the latent fingerprint recognition mechanism 50 g determines whether the input fingerprint is a biological fingerprint. [Step S 1 0, 9]. In the procedure for detecting fingerprints in [Step S 1 05], the fingerprint is detected by adding a gray scale as described above. In particular, on a target's X-axis or Y-axis A gray level difference is added between adjacent pixels on the obtained image, as shown in FIG. 5 [step S 1 06]. In the next step, a latent fingerprint recognition mechanism recognizes whether the value to be added is greater or less than A set reference value [step S107]. If the value measured by the debt is large, it means that a fingerprint is detected under the state of "pi-off" of the backlight, and the fingerprint obtained has been identified, It is a latent heart pattern [step S 1 08]. And if the detected value is equal to or smaller
