2020.6.19 Near infrared Light emitting diode (LED) + Charded coupled device (CCD) camera > Finger vein recognition > Blood vessel patterns are unique to each individual, as are other biometric data such as fingerprints or the patterns of the iris. Unlike some biometric systems, blood vessel patterns are almost impossible to counterfeit because they are located beneath the skin's surface. The finger vein ID system is much harder to fool because it can only authenticate the finger of a living person.
