Abstract
The invention relates to a method and a system for recording biometric data, especially for recording the features of the fingers or faces of persons, wherein an object is recorded by optically scanning it and evaluated by digital image processing. The inventive method is characterized in that the object is recorded simultaneously or almost simultaneously by at least two different recording devices, whereby all pixels of the surface to be imaged are imaged in at least two different directions in at least one digital two-dimensional image each and a three-dimensional model of the viewed object is calculated from at least two images.
