Biometric authentication apparatus and biometric authentication method
First Claim
1. A biometric authentication apparatus comprising:
- a biometric reading unit reading biometric data;
a verification data storage unit storing a plurality of pieces of verification data for verifying against the biometric data;
a priority order table storage unit storing a priority order table in which a priority order of searching the plurality of pieces of verification data is set;
a control unit registering the priority order into the priority order table, and sequentially searching the verification data at an order based on the priority order registered in the priority order table when the biometric data is read by the biometric reading unit to verify the biometric data against the verification data; and
an information unit informing of a verification result by the control unit.
