Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a biometric authentication device for authenticating a living body based on data obtained by imaging a structure in a biological part such as a vein or a fingerprint. Background technique
[0002] In the related art, imaging devices for imaging structures in biological parts are used for biometric authentication devices and the like, and various authentication devices for authenticating living bodies using image data such as fingerprints or veins are proposed. Generally, in this biometric authentication device, since the imaging device itself is thick, in order to apply the device to a thin device, a method of arranging the imaging device outside the authentication device or an optical system of the imaging device independently of each other is mainly used. (imaging lens) and detection system (imaging device) method.
[0003] However, in recent years, as various devices have become thinner or due to manufacturability o...
