Abstract
An identification system is disclosed which determines whether the claimed identity of an individual is in fact the true identity. A three dimensional image of a hand is obtained using a digitizing camera and a pair of orthogonal reflecting surfaces. The image is then compared with a previously recorded hand image for the claimed identity. If the images match, within a selectable tolerance, the person is accepted as the correct individual. If they do not match, the person is rejected. Signalling and/or control apparatus responds to the results of the comparison.
