Yes. That's probably an accurate description.
I'm by no means an expert in the biometric field, far from it.
But in my most humble option, I think it would be *very* difficult
to obtain an identical sample every time.
When it comes to fingerprints the environment probably plays a big role
in the sample, for example light conditions, skin moisture, dust on the
sensor etc.
Maybe there are other people on this list with better insight in this
field?
