Fingerprint Introduction

INDOAFIS.BLOGSPOT.COM - Fingerprint is a reproduction of a hand accidentally taken using ink or trace results of palms that ever touch the surface of an object.

  

Fingerprint Identification is the method of identification using the impressions made by the minute ridge formations or patterns found on the fingertips. No two persons have exactly the same arrangement of ridge patterns, and the patterns of any one individual remain unchanged throughout life.

Fingerprints offer an infallible means of personal identification. Other personal characteristics may change, but fingerprints do not.

Fingerprints can be recorded on a standard fingerprint card or can be recorded digitally and transmitted electronically for comparison. By comparing fingerprints at the scene of a crime with the fingerprint record of suspected persons, officials can establish absolute proof of the presence or identity of a person.

Today, the fingerprint identification method has been widely used throughout the world. The method is not only used by police departement  but has also been used by other departments for various purposes.
