I've recently purchased an IBM Thinkpad that came with a fingerprint scanner. That got me thinking: are fingerprint scanners a good way to protect your code i.e. if someone takes your laptop or goes on your laptop while you're away, would they still be able to get in? The question also applies for other biometrics techniques that the ne...
Do you know where can I find a Delphi code sample for fingerprint recognition from an image file. ...
I am looking for a comparison of Fingerprint reader SDKs available for .NET (we are using .Net 3.5). My requirements are 1. Associate more than one fingerprint with a person. 2. Store the fingerprints it self. (So I do not have to change the Database for my program.) 3. Work in both event and no-event mode. (Event Mode: Give notifi...
I'm thinking of implementing a keystroke dynamics (authenticating people based on their typing patterns) application for Linux. As I see it, I have two alternatives: Extend the Linux logon to support keystroke dynamics Create a desktop-locker program which "locks" the screen and can only be unlocked by a typist with a particular typing...
hi. i am doing my final year proj in fingerprint authentication. i 've completed binarization, thinning, minutiae extraction. i am doing it in matlab. i am stuck with the verification. i don't know how to perform verification. so please help me out to solve this problem. i would be grateful to ppl who help .. thanks in advance. please he...

I am trying to explain to a non-developer the difference between an API an SDK. I need to explain why a commercial fingerprint software vendor will likely not provide an SDK although they may certainly have used one. But both device vendors and software vendors can and should expose a well-defined API. This API allows other software prog...
In general we use biometrics in computer applications say for authentication. Lets get 2 examples finger prints and facial recognition. In those cases how we keep the information for comparison. As an example we can't keep a image and process it every time. So what are the methodologies we use to store/determine the similarity in such c...
I am looking for a finger print sdk that can run on .net compact frame work and can make use of the in built finger scanning hardware of pda's like hp ipaq etc .thanks ...
Has anyone used the Microsoft thumb reader? Where can I find detailed API documentation for it? Does it have a built in identification system? Does it support Java? ...
This is a very specific question which will probably earn me the tumbleweed badge, but please answer if you can I've imported DigitalPersona sdk dll's as type libraries into Delphi and am trying to verify fingerprints which I've stored as serialized data in a database, it's working very awesomely. Enrollment seems to work fine, but I c...
We are wanting to add support for fingerprint authentication in a .Net 3.5 application. We currently are only using the sdk from Griaule. But this only supports like 5 usb plug-and-play devices. We are wanting to support most readers included with laptops, tablets, etc. Is there a universal way to support many devices? I know there ...
Hi guys does anyone know why the programming language C++ is used more widely in biometric security applications compared to the programming language Java? The answers that I have collected so far are 1) Virtual Compilers 2) OpenCV Library provided by C++. Can anyone help with this question?? ...
We have developed a Silverlight Control which performs some biometric's to establish someone's identity and will be using it to authenicate a user in our MVC app. However we want to provide for someone which does not have Silverlight installed and therefore return a view which provides a normal login/password type stuff. My question i...
i'm working on a project and need your ideas, advices. First of all, let me tell my problem. There is power button and some other keys of a machine and there is only one user has authentication to use this machine.There are no other authentication methods, the machine is in public area in a company. the machine is working with the co...
I work as support staff in a Biology research institute as a student, and Perl seems to be used everywhere. Not for every single project, but it seems that more than half the people here have a few Perl books in/on their office/desk. Why is Perl used so much in Biology? ...
Hello, I am trying to design a new application which basically aims at providing biometric authentication services. What I want to do is that the app will present the user with an interface where the user can get his eye scanned for authentication. The most important feature I want to incorporate is that the user need not have a webcam,...
i'm working on a project and i have a subset of user's key-stroke time data.This means that the user makes n attempts and i will use these recorded attempt time data in various kinds of classification algorithms for future user attempts to verify that the login process is done by the user or some another person. (Simply i can say that th...
Hello all, Please tell me is there any SDK for fingerprints developed in Java or C/C++ that can be used on Linux platform? Regards. Mukul Gupta ...
is it possible to use the touch api as to read in and authenticate fingerprints? i have an idea for a biometric app but i want to make sure the necessary api's are available first. thanks ...
