International Journal of Security and Networks (IJSN), Vol. 3, No. 4, 2008

Abstract: The Retina/Iris Multimodal Biometric (RIMB) system is a developing technology that aims to address security and imaging problems inherent in current iris recognition systems. The shortcomings of the Iris recognition system are studied. The addition of retinal scanning helps alleviate spoofing and imaging issues associated with occlusions of the iris. By combining both iris and retinal cameras in one apparatus, scans can be done in parallel and data can be combined at the feature extraction level. RIMB provides for a nearly impossible to spoof system that is best in high security situations. Hypotheses on the operation of RIMB are presented.
