1. A personal authentication system using biometrics information, which identifies or authenticates an individual by verifying to-be-verified biometrics characteristic data obtained from to-be-verified biometrics information acquired at the time of the identification or authentication against previously registered biometrics characteristic data previously extracted for registration from to-be-registered biometrics information acquired at a time of user registration, said system comprising:

  • a biometrics information inputting section having a function to acquire the to-be-verified biometrics information;

    a biometrics information converting section converting said to-be-verified biometrics information, acquired through said biometrics information inputting section, into a state to be acquired on a predetermined acquisition condition, said predetermined acquisition condition being a same condition under which the registered biometric information was acquired; and

    a biometrics characteristic data extracting section extracting to-be-verified biometrics characteristic data from the to-be-verified biometrics information obtained by the conversion in said biometrics information converting section,wherein before the converting by the converting section, the biometrics information inputting section acquires the to-be-verified biometrics information in a state according to another predetermined acquisition condition that is different than the predetermined acquisition condition under which the registered biometric information was previously acquired, and where after being converted the state of the acquired to-be-verified biometrics information is a same state as the previously registered biometrics characteristics data.
