Faking a fingerprint (part 2)

In my previous post I have described the simple way of faking a finger for an optical fingerprint sensor.
The second experiment demonstrated the high identification capabilities of optical fingerprint capturing devices together with their absolute lack of discrimination of fake "fingers". During the study we managed to get the fingerprint image that was accepted by an optical sensor. The "victim" was unaware and the fingerprint was captured during his absence.
Needless to say that optical fingerprint sensors offer not just a hole in security , but a wide open door for any intrudor. We have to admit that capasitive and RF matrix type sensors are not much safer.
I will show you how to trick solid state fingerprint sensor in my later posts. Keep reading
