  • Identification of a person based on ultra-sound scan analyses of hand bone geometry
    Patent number: 7760918
    Abstract: A method for producing a model of bone geometry of a volumetric region of a body is provided. The method comprises scanning the volumetric region using ultrasound and acquiring geometric data associated with bones; identifying points derived from a surface of the bones; organizing the points into separate bone entities and transforming the points so as to position the bone entities in accordance with a normalized template. The model may be used for identifying or verifying the identity of a person.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 13, 2008
    Date of Patent: July 20, 2010
    Inventors: Zinayida Bezvershenko, Volodymyr Tchouikevitch, John Ghorayeb

  • Identification of a person based on ultra-sound scan analyses of hand bone geometry
    Patent number: 7428319
    Abstract: The invention disclosed provides a method of biometric identification of a person based on ultra-sound scan analyses of hand bones. For the purposes of identification/verification, a three dimensional (3D) ultra-sound scan of an individual's hand bones is acquired to compare the scan with those stored in the record carrier that can be placed on the host or a remote computer.
