    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a biometric authentication device. The biometric authentication device includes a main body for forming a hand grip surface and constituting an entire framework of the biometric authentication device. At least one light source is disposed on one side of the main body and configured to radiate light. A reflection unit is included in the main body and attached to a side opposite that of the light source, the reflection unit allowing the radiated light to be incident on a hand and re-reflecting light that is incident on and reflected from the hand. An imaging device is disposed on the side of the main body, which is identical to the side on which the light source is disposed, and is configured to acquire biometric information of the hand by forming images of re-reflected light. An authentication/verification unit performs personal authentication using the biometric information.
