Finger vein is a unique physiological biometric for identifying individuals based on the physical characteristics and attributes of the vein patterns. This technology is at present in use or development for a wide range of applications; this contain credit card authentication; security in automobile; employee time and tracking attendance; computer and network authentication and security[1]. The proposed work simultaneously acquires the finger-vein and low-resolution finger image images and combines these two techniques using a better score-level combination strategy of finger vein. Analyse the previously proposed finger-vein identification approaches and develop a new approach that describes it superiority over prior efforts. In this thesis developed and analyzed three new score-level combinations i.e., Repeated Line Tracking, Gabor Filter and K-means comparatively evaluate them with more popular score-level fusion approaches to ascertain their effectiveness in the proposed system.
