[Problem] A biometric identification apparatus that can accurately and rapidly perform liveness detection with a simple structure.[Solution] The apparatus includes a plurality of light sources 102, 103, 106, and 107, each having a wavelength different from one another, for emitting light to a finger 200 as an object to be identified, and receivers 104 and 105 for detecting the light passing through the finger.

Determination in liveness detection is made by comparing the transmittance with a previously-set threshold of transmittance.

An imaging apparatus consists of multiple miniaturized microscopes arranged into an array capable of simultaneously imaging respective portions of an object. A continuous linear translation approach is followed to scan the object and generate multiple image swaths of the object. In order to improve the quality of the composite image produced by concatenation of the image swaths, the performance of each microscope is normalized to the same base reference for each relevant optical-system property. Correction factors are developed through calibration to equalize the spectral response measured at each detector, to similarly balance the gains and offsets of the detector / light-source combinations associated with the various objectives, to correct for geometric misalignments between microscopes, and to correct optical and chromatic aberrations in each objective.
