The Impact of Illumination on Finger Vascular Pattern Recognition by Pesigrihastamadya Normakristagaluh, Geert J. Laanstra, Luuk J. Spreeuwers, Raymond N. J. Veldhuis

“…Narrower bundles of light do not affect which veins are visible, but they reduce the overexposure at finger boundaries and increase the quality of vascular pattern images. The narrow beam achieves the best performance with 0% of FNMR@FMR0.01%, and the wide beam consistently results in a higher false nonmatch rate. …”
