Abstract
The invention relates to equipment for the identification of an individual by capture of body imprint images and of the underlying venous network, comprising: a prismatic optical element having: a large side for apposition of a body zone; a first inclined lateral side receiving a first radiation having a first wave length emitted by a first lighting means to light the large side with total reflection; a second inclined lateral side facing a first sensor receiving the first reflected radiation carrying an image of the body imprint; and a small side receiving a second radiation having a second wave length emitted by second lighting means, perpendicularly reaching the apposition zone and penetrating the body zone, and which faces a second sensor receiving the second reflected radiation carrying an image of the underlying venous network.
