Abstract: In this paper, an embedded finger-vein recognition system (FVRS) for authentication on ATM network is proposed. The system is implemented on an embedded platform and equipped with a novel finger-vein recognition algorithm. The proposed system consists of four hardware modules: radio frequency identification system, image acquisition module, embedded main board, and human machine communication module. RFID module will start the very initial communication between the user and the device. The finger-vein images of the user are acquired by the image acquisition module of the hardware. The finger-vein recognition algorithm is coded and targeted as firmware of the embedded main board. Human machine interface module communicates with the user through keyboard and displays the outcome of the match in human recognizable formats like LCD or LED displays as well as voice message. The RFID module enhances the security and credibility of the whole system by giving short message service (SMS) through GSM technology platform to the actual user.
