DigitalPersona SDKs provide tools for developers to create a new generation of commercial and internal applications delivering the convenience, security and biometric assurance of fingerprint authentication.

From time and attendance to process control, point-of-sale and business applications, DigitalPersona SDKs allow developers to quickly integrate fingerprint authentication into their software and hardware designs.

USE HID FINGERPRINT BIOMETRICS TO:

  • Authenticate users reliably and conveniently
  • Prevent fraud
  • Simplify and enhance security
  • Streamline business processes
  • Address compliancy

The DigitalPersona® Software Development Kit (SDK) for Windows enables integrators and developers to quickly add the power of fingerprint-based authentication to their Microsoft® Windows-based applications. HID offers powerful SDKs which feature accurate, high performing fingerprint authentication algorithms.

EASY TO USE TOOLKITS

In only a few hours, developers can easily integrate fingerprint authentication into their application and have access to a full range of authentication services for their PC, embedded computer, point-of-sale (POS) terminal or server solution. Sample code is included to illustrate the capturing of a fingerprint, extracting a fingerprint template and matching fingerprint templates. Simple architecture diagrams, programming workflow illustrations and detailed documentation enable fast integration of powerful fingerprint biometrics into customer-friendly applications.

FINGERPRINT MATCHING ENGINE

The DigitalPersona FingerJet™ biometric matching engine provides feature extraction, as well as enrollment. The DigitalPersona FingerJet matching engine, combined with DigitalPersona Fingerprint Readers, offers accurate fingerprint recognition, low false accept and false reject rates (FAR/ FRR) coupled with fast execution time.

STANDARDS SUPPORT

The DigitalPersona SDK for Windows fully embraces image, template and compression standards. In addition, the DigitalPersona FingerJet matching engine features an extractor and matcher. 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.

SUPPORTED FINGERPRINT READERS AND MODULES

  • DigitalPersona 4500 Series
  • DigitalPersona 5000 Series
  • EikonTouch 510
  • EikonTouch 710
  • Nomad 30 Module

SECURITY AND PRIVACY PROGRAMMING OPTIONS

The DigitalPersona SDK does not track, store, log, or collect images, user data or activity. This helps protect the privacy of the person using the readers.

The DigitalPersona SDK for Windows supports C, C++, C#, Java, .NET, and JavaScript language interfaces. In addition, User Interface (UI) features, such as enrollment and customizable verification dialog boxes, eliminate having to create these modules.
