MUMBAI, India, Feb. 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641009057 A) filed by Sr University, Warangal, Telangana, on Jan. 29, for 'a secured hand palm based biometric multifactor authentication in online banking under cloud.'
Inventor(s) include Gullapally Vijayalaxmi; and Dr V. Thirupathi.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 13, under issue no. 07/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Plm Biometric as a technology was largely limited to organisational and governmental purposes only where the purpose of usage was to Identify or to verify an user or individual in particular. The introduction of biometric authentication in regular consumer electronics such as smart phones has extrapolated the technology usage in numbers. In the recent years, the area of biometric has gained more popularity and as a result, become more attractive to many researchers. According to a recent study by Juniper Research, it is estimated that more than 770 million biometric authentication applications will get downloaded each year, by the year 2019. With an increase in number of users adopting biometric technology, the threat of data loss in the form of identity theft and its subsequent consequences (which may or may not be severe in nature) is significantly high and therefore a need of enhancement and upgradation of the technology becomes necessary. This survey paper is a resultant of an effort focussed on understanding the research developments in the area of Identification of individuals based on their palm print characteristics. Palmprint recognition is one of the major techniques which have been considered for identification and verification purpose. Image processing plays a critical function in the palm print based biometric recognition system. This system mainly operates in some common stages such as scanning of palm, pre-processing, feature extraction and finally matching of the palm within a database. There are several algorithms that have been investigated for each stage. This paper makes an attempt to review the research done on various recent and advanced palmprint recognitions systems and their comparative analysis based on the techniques used, and their respective benefits and drawbacks. Finally, some potential directions for the future are also discussed. Keywords: Biometric recognition system, security, authentication, Palmprint recognition."
