Fingerprints provide sufficient and reliable discriminative characteristics which have been considered one of the most robust evidence for individualization. The limitation of current minutiae-based fingerprint technology seems to be solved with the development of level 3 features since they can offer additional information for problematic fingerprint recognition and even donor profiling. So far, tremendous efforts have been devoted to detecting and analysing the third-level details. This review summarizes the advances in level 3 details with an emphasis on their reliability assessment, visualization methods based on physical interaction, residue-response, mass spectrometry and electrochemical techniques, as well as the potentiality for individualization, donor profiling and even other application scenarios. In the end, we also give a personal perspective on the future direction and the remaining challenges in the third-level-detail-related field. We believe that the new exciting progress is expected in the development of level 3 detail detection and analysis with continued interest and attention to this field.
指纹提供了充足且可靠的鉴别特征，被认为是个体识别中最可靠的证据之一。当前基于细节点的指纹技术的局限性似乎随着三级特征的发展而得到解决，因为它们可以为有问题的指纹识别甚至供体分析提供额外的信息。到目前为止，已经投入了大量的精力来检测和分析三级细节。本文综述了三级细节的最新进展，重点介绍了它们的可靠性评估、基于物理相互作用、残留反应、质谱和电化学技术的可视化方法，以及在个体识别、供体分析甚至其他应用场景中的潜力。最后，我们还对三级细节相关领域的未来方向和遗留挑战提出了个人看法。我们相信，随着对该领域的持续关注和兴趣，三级细节检测和分析的新的令人兴奋的进展有望实现。
