Project Description

The U.are.U SDK for Windows is a bold step forward in fingerprint biometric application development. With a synchronous API, this SDK fully embraces image, template and compression standards. In addition, the DigitalPersona FingerJet biometric engine features a MINEX certified extractor. This provides developers with the flexibility to make unfettered choices of matching algorithms and the ability to comply with a growing customer requirement for standards support.The U.are.U SDK for Windows includes a fully distributable, royalty-free DigitalPersona runtime engine, sample code and a detailed developer’s guide. The U.are.U SDK for Windows is fully compatible with DigitalPersona U.are.U Fingerprint Readers, Sensors and Keyboard.

Standards support– In addition to legacy DigitalPersona image and minutiae formats, the U.are.U SDK for Windows offers support for the following standards:
  • ISO 19794-4:2005, Fingerprint Image standard.
  • ANSI/INCITS 381-2004, Finger Image Based Data Interchange Format.
  • ISO/IEC 19794-2:2005, Biometric data interchange format.
  • ANSI INCITS 378-2004 Finger minutiae data format.
  • WSQ – includes support for Aware WSQ1000 SDK and NIST WSQ algorithm.
  • MINEX (Minutiae Exchange) Certification – DigitalPersona submitted its FingerJet minutiae extraction SDK to the ongoing MINEX program. The FingerJet extractor was certified to create MINEX compliant templates.
  • NIST FINGERPRINT IMAGE QUALITY (NFIQ) – Includes built-in support for the Aware NFIQ algorithm as well.

Integrated 1:n identification– The U.are.U SDK for Windows offers support for 1:n identification integrated into the FingerJet engine. No helper SDKs are needed.Platforms– XP/Vista/Win 7 (32/64), XP Embedded (32-bit), Windows Server 2003/2008 (32/64-bit), Citrix/Terminal Services (local driver).

Interfaces– .NET, Java, C#, ActiveX/COM, C/C++, JPOS/OPOSSupport– Programmer support can be purchased to speed the development of the end solution or application.
