1. A user authentication device, comprising:
- an input sensing module comprising a sensing surface to which a palm of a user is input, the sensing surface having a three-dimensional shape; and
a control module configured to compare input palm information sensed by the input sensing module with stored user palm information to output an authentication signal when the number of data points of input palm information consistent with the stored user palm information is equal to or greater than a predetermined number.
