Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention disclose a fingerprint anti-counterfeiting method and device used for implementing a fingerprint anti-counterfeiting function efficiently. The method in the embodiment of the present invention includes: acquiring a fingerprint image; controlling a camera to acquire a face image under a preset trigger condition; performing face identification on the face image according to a pre-stored face template; and determining the fingerprint image as an authentic fingerprint image when the face identification succeeds. As a fingerprint feature and a face feature of an identical user both can be used for uniquely identifying the user, the fingerprint feature and the face feature of the user can be associated with each other. If face identification performed on a face image according to a preset face module succeeds, it can be determined that an acquired fingerprint image is an authentic fingerprint image. Moreover, the fingerprint anti-counterfeiting device acquires a face image only under a preset trigger condition, thus restricting the degree of participation by a user when the device acquires the face image. As such, the probability of counterfeiting a f…
