Abstract
A method for obtaining an image of at least one fingerprint from a sequence of images is disclosed. The method comprises a segmentation of images in a sequence of acquired images making it possible to determine regions liable to comprise a fingerprint, a tracking of regions determined along with the sequence of images and a calculation of a confidence mark for each region determined. The confidence mark of a region determined is incremented (or respectively decremented) at each acquired image if the region is present in (or respectively absent from) the image, the increment (or respectively the decrement) being dependent on the predefined image acquisition frequency. Information making it possible to obtain a final image containing fingerprints is generated by the method when a predefined number of regions each having reached a confidence mark at least equal to a predetermined threshold is obtained.
