Zusammenfassung
United Nations adopted the resolution “Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs),” which
aims at solving the eradicating the poverty in all its forms and dimensions. One of the action plans is
listed at “Goal 16 Target 16.9,” which clearly directs “By 2030, provide legal identity for all, including
birth registration.” A fingerprint identification technology is one of the best solutions from the
viewpoint of making a reliable identification system for the birth registration. However, collecting the
fingerprint data from neonates is currently considered as one of the most difficult technology areas.
Addressing this problem, we develop a novel high-resolution fingerprint sensor, whose image resolution
is 2,400ppi. We collect fingerprint images from neonates within 24 hours after birth through
the field research in Kenya. The experiments using our dataset demonstrates the effectiveness of our
fingerprint sensor in neonate identification compared with 500ppi and 1,270ppi fingerprint sensors.
