  • Like fingerprints, everyone’s tongue print is unique.
  • The surface of the tongue is covered with numerous small bumps and grooves called papillae, which give it a textured appearance.
  • These papillae, along with various other factors such as the size, shape, and distribution of taste buds, create a distinct pattern on each individual’s tongue.
  • Tongue prints have been explored as a potential biometric identifier, similar to fingerprints, for purposes such as identification and authentication.
  • Research has shown that the patterns and features of the tongue can be captured and analyzed to distinguish one individual from another.
  • While the use of tongue prints as a widespread biometric identification technique is still in its early stages and not as commonly utilized as fingerprints or other methods, studies have demonstrated the potential uniqueness and individuality of tongue prints.
