Abstract: The present invention relates to a contactless fingerprint recognition method using a smartphone and, more particularly, to a contactless fingerprint recognition method using a smartphone, which can generate an optimal fingerprint image without distortion regardless of various standards of built-in camera lenses of smartphones, has compatibility with a fingerprint image of a conventional optical fingerprint recognition device that has been widely popularized, and enables the fingerprint image to be converted into an image that meets the requirements of the international standard (ISO19794-4) and into optimal recognized fingerprint data (ISO19794-2), so that the utilization of contactless fingerprint recognition is further improved.
