About this document
Overview of Fingerprint Patterns by Samantha Jane Babilonia Fackelmann is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document defines and describes the different types of fingerprint patterns, including arches, loops, and whorls. It defines key terms like ridges, deltas, and cores. It explains that arches have ridges that enter and exit without recurving. Loops must have a delta, core, and recurving ridge. Whorls have two or more deltas and at least one complete ridge circuit. Specific whorl types like plain, central pocket, and double loop are also defined. Accidental whorls combine elements of different patterns.
