Definitions

Vascular patterns, as formed by the blood vessel structure inside the human body, are used in biometrics to identify a human individual. The corresponding field in biometrics is thus termed “vascular biometrics” (Uhl et al. 2019; Uhl 2019) or “vascular recognition”. The following eye-based biometric modalities are typically classified into this trait category: Retina recognition (Mazumdar and Nirmala 2018) and sclera recognition (Das et al. 2013).

The vascular patterns have to be made visible and captured by a suitable biometric scanner device in order to use them to conduct biometric recognition. Both retina recognition as well as sclera recognition operate in the visible wavelength domain (VIS), however, the illumination requirements are fairly different.While being rather unproblematic for sclera recognition, imaging the retinal vascular network is accomplished...
