Abstract: A finger imaging system for receiving and holding a finger of a person being fingerprinted by an automated fingerprint reader. The system includes a finger imaging device having a finger receiving portion and a finger positioning portion, together forming a recess of reducing dimension such that a subject finger forceably inserted into it is held in a stable position. The finger positioning portion may have a flexible or resilient surface contacting the finger to enhance the stabilizing effect. The flexible surface may be inflated to increase the retaining pressure.
