Summary :

This paper discusses an application of fingerprint identification technology to enhanced human-machine interaction, and also to information systems, specifically to a mobile authentication terminal for secure networked services and to digital appliances. A "Fingerprint User Interface (FpUI)," exploits information regarding not only who put a finger on its sensor but which specific finger it was. With this user-friendly interface, a user can assign commands, data objects, status, or personalized settings to individual fingers. A functional architecture for a mobile authentication terminal, "Pocket-PID," with fingerprint identification capability is proposed which features an easy-to-use FpUI and high security, where the identification function is totally enclosed within the unit. This enables a user's identity authenticated without any possibility of actual fingerprint data being disclosed. The Pocket-PID facilitates implementation of networked services based on secure biometric user identification.
