Does iphone provide any API to detect human thumb Impression?

I wish to develop an app in iPhone in which user's thumb will be scanned first. The impression of the thumb should be used as a signature for email or report. Please suggest if its possible to do or not. If its possible then are there any tutorials or link.

Thanks in advance, Prerna

Solution

  • Unfortunately no, iPhone detects touches as points, it's not sensitive enough to detect the human thumb with the fine marks of a thumbprint.

    Many have tried, some may even provide code, but ultimately it can't work.
