[0008] [Figure 1] An example of an item selection screen [Figure 2] An example of an item selection screen DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] The biometric information registration system comprises a user information input means for inputting user information, an item selection means for selecting an item, a storage means for storing information, a processing means for processing information, a biometric information input means for inputting biometric information, and a writing means for writing information.

[0010] The user information input means is a means for inputting user information, and there are well-known means, so detailed explanations will be omitted. However, examples include an input means for inputting user information using a keyboard, an input means for inputting user information using a touch panel, an input means for inputting user information using an IC chip and IC chip reader, and an input means for inputting user information using biometric authentication. The most suitable means can be used from among the input means that can input user information, and is not limited to these.

[0011] The item selection means is a means for selecting an item, and includes, for example, an item selection means for selecting an item using a monitor and a mouse or a keyboard, an item selection means for selecting an item using a touch panel, etc., and the most suitable means for selecting an item may be used, and is not limited to these.

[0012] The items that can be selected by the item selection means may be, for example, fingerprint information, iris information, vein information, face information, palm shape information, voiceprint information, etc., and the selectable items may be set in advance and stored in the system's storage means so that the system operator can select the item they intend. The items are not limited to these as long as they indicate biometric information. For example, the fingerprint information items may be further subdivided to allow items to be selected for each finger, such as right thumb, left thumb, right index finger, and left index finger, or the vein information items may be further subdivided to allow items to be selected for each body part, such as right wrist, left wrist, right thumb, and left thumb. Figures 1 and 2 are examples of item selection screens and are not limited to these.

[0013] The storage means is a means for storing information, and there are well-known ones, so detailed explanation will be omitted. However, examples include storage devices, memories, storage devices, semiconductor memories, magnetic storage devices, optical storage devices, magneto-optical disks, paper, PRAM, holographic memories, molecular memories, DNA memories, etc., and it is sufficient to use the most suitable one that can store information, but this is not limited to these.

[0014] The processing means is a means for processing information, and is well known, so a detailed description will be omitted. For example, there are central processing units, central processing units, CPUs, MCUs, MPUs, etc., and it is sufficient to use the most suitable unit that can process information, and this is not limited to these.

[0015] It is desirable that the storage means and processing means are configured as a single entity, and there are well-known entities that configure the storage means and processing means as a single entity, and detailed explanations will be omitted. For example, these include computers, servers, smartphones, portable terminals, wearable terminals, etc., and it is sufficient to use the most suitable entity, and this is not a limitation.

[0016] The biometric information input means is a means for inputting biometric information, and there are well-known means, so detailed description will be omitted, but examples include input means used for biometric authentication, input means used for fingerprint authentication, input means used for iris authentication, input means used for vein authentication, input means used for face authentication, input means used for hand geometry authentication, input means used for voiceprint authentication, etc. It is sufficient to use the most suitable input means from those that can input biometric information, and there is no limitation to these. A combination of multiple input means may also be used.

[0017] The writing means is a means for writing information, and there are well-known means, so a detailed description will be omitted, but examples include contact writing means, non-contact writing means, writing means for writing information to an IC chip, writing means for writing information to a magnetic memory, writing means for writing information to a semiconductor memory, etc., and it is sufficient to use the most appropriate writing means depending on the object to be written, and there is no limitation to these. [Example]

[0018] A system that allows a user to register unused biometric information items is composed of a user information input means for inputting user information, an item selection means for selecting an item, a storage means for storing information, and a processing means for processing information.

[0019] The flow of information processing by the processing means of the system when a user registers an item of biometric information that is not used will be explained below. 1) The user inputs user information using the user information input means. 2) The user selects the biometric information items that will not be used using the item selection means. 3) The processing means sets the selected item as unused biometric information. 4) The processing means performs processing to associate the items set as unused biometric information with user information and store them in the storage means.

[0020] The processing means can set the biometric information as unused by adding code information indicating that the item is unused to the target item. For example, if the fingerprint of the right index finger is selected as an item, code information indicating that the item is unused is added to the item of the fingerprint of the right index finger. [Example]

[0021] A system that allows a user to register unused biometric information comprises a user information input means for inputting user information, an item selection means for selecting an item, a storage means for storing information, a processing means for processing information, and a biometric information input means for inputting biometric information.

[0022] The flow of information processing by the system's processing means when registering biometric information that the user will not use will be explained below. 1) The user inputs user information using the user information input means. 2) The user selects an item using the item selection means. 3) The user inputs biometric information using the biometric information input means. 4) The processing means sets the inputted biometric information as unused biometric information. 5) The processing means performs processing to associate the biometric information that has been set as unused biometric information with user information and store it in the storage means.

[0023] The processing means may set the biometric information as unused by adding code information indicating that the biometric information is unused to the target biometric information. For example, if fingerprint information of the right index finger is input as the biometric information, code information indicating that the biometric information is unused is added to the fingerprint information of the right index finger.
