Types of fingerprints

Fingerprint Pattern Facts | The different types of patterns in fingerprinting.

Nature is full of patterns. These patterns are found from non-living microscopic to gigantic structures and from living single cell life forms to complex multi-cellular animals. Greek philosophers to modern scientists have studied these patterns and tried to make sense out of them. They figured that these natural patterns are governed by incidents and natural selection, and can be mathematically modeled in some cases. Whatever can be modeled mathematically, can be bound in rules, mapped and…

Everyone has unique fingerprints. Whether thy are simple loop, arch, whorl and double loop. Most of these patterns high easily determined just by looking at your own finger but in the main catogries there is sub catogries to a finger print patter such as: Arch: - plain arch - tented arch Loops: - radial loop - Ulnar loop Whorl:- Plain whorl - Central pocket whorl - double loop whorl - accidental whorl
