Abstract
The existing palm vein recognition equipment cannot fully illuminate the palm at the near end (30 mm), and the illumination is low at the far end (120 mm), it is challenging for the poor palm vein images to meet the financial grade biometric accuracy requirements. This is due to the specification limitation of the lighting system components. We propose a compact rectangular-FOI infrared lighting system for palm-print and palm vein recognition with high uniformity and high efficiency. This ultra-short-distance (30 mm) lighting solution achieved a 200% increase in system efficiency, with illuminance uniformity of over 60% at the near end and over 90% at the far end. We have developed a novel LED component and a light distribution lampshade with multiple refractive index resins, according to the inverse square law of light, reduce the center illuminance and enhance the illuminance of the edge area at the target projection plane. It supports a broader working distance range for palm recognition, offers a more simplified design, and provides a more natural user experience. The proposed system is endowed with three significant advantages. Firstly, it matches the lighting FOI with the camera FOV to increase efficiency. Secondly, it provides high illuminance uniformity with fewer lighting components, eliminating the need for complex lighting layouts. Thirdly, it avoids the utilization of diffuse materials for enhancing uniformity, which would otherwise result in reduced light transmittance. The simplified lighting source layout, which requires only two or even one component, significantly reduces system design difficulty.
