| Summary: | This paper present the implementations of Gabor filter for fingerprint recognition using Verilog HDL. This work demonstrates the application of Gabor Filter technique to enhance the fingerprint image. The incoming signal in form of image pixel will be filter out or convolute by the Gabor filter to define the ridge and valley regions of fingerprint. This is done with the application of a real time convolve based on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) to perform the convolution operation. The main characteristic of the proposed approach are the usage of memory to store the incoming image pixel and the coefficient of the Gabor filter before the convolution matrix take place. The result was the signal convoluted with the Gabor coefficient. © 2009 American Institute of Physics. |
