Contents of VeriFinger 6.2 Standard SDK and Extended SDK

VeriFinger SDK is based on VeriFinger fingerprint recognition technology and is intended for biometric systems developers and integrators. The SDK allows rapid development of biometric applications using functionality from the VeriFinger algorithm for Microsoft Windows, Linux and Mac OS X. VeriFinger can be easily integrated into the customer's security system. The integrator has complete control over SDK data input and output.

The following VeriFinger 6.2 SDKs are available:

• VeriFinger 6.2 Standard SDK is intended for PC-based biometric application development. It includes Matcher and Extractor components, programming samples and tutorials, fingerprint scanner support modules and software documentation. The SDK allows the development of biometric applications for Microsoft Windows, Linux or Mac OS X operating systems.
• VeriFinger 6.2 Extended SDK is intended for biometric Web-based and network application development. It includes all features of Standard SDK. Additionally, the SDK contains sample client applications, tutorials and a ready-to-use matching server.

The table below compares VeriFinger 6.2 Standard SDK and VeriFinger 6.2 Extended SDK.

VeriFinger Matching Server

VeriFinger Matching Server software is not included in VeriFinger 6.2 Standard SDK.

VeriFinger Matching Server is ready-to-use software that performs the identification and verification of fingerprints on the server side. The server is intended to be used in web-based and other network-based systems.

VeriFinger Matching Server runs on PCs with Microsoft Windows or Linux and includes these additional components:

• Server administration tutorials that show how to receive information about server state.
• Configuration assistance tool.
• Support modules for MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server and SQLite databases.
• Sample client applications:
  • C# tutorials (for Microsoft Windows);
  • C sample;
  • Sample Java applet.

VeriFinger Extractor component

VeriFinger Extractor creates fingerprint templates from fingerprint images. Image quality control can be applied to accept only good quality fingerprint images.

The Extractor can generalize a fingerprint template from several fingerprint images to improve the template's quality.

VeriFinger Matcher component

VeriFinger Matcher performs fingerprint template matching in 1-to-1 and 1-to-many modes.
