3D face and hand scans acquisition system dedicated for Multimodal Biometric identification

The aim of this paper is to present the data acquisition system built for the Multimodal Biometric System for Contactless Persons Identification. The system is capable of capturing 3D scans of face and hand. The hardware and software architecture of the acquisition system designed by the authors is described. The authors describe in detail the system calibration algorithm and present sample results.
