    I need to develop a project that can benefit from these two technologies. But I never tried my hands on any biometric solution before. Can anyone of you please help? What I need to know is that a) is there any recognition SDK available or what? b) are there any free open source SDKs too? c) how easy is to integrate one into our own applications? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Gurmeet


    BTW, can Google help me search my lost pajamas?

      The MIT Media Laboratory Vision and Modelling Group has some material and Matlab code library that you can use for both fingerprint and signature recognition. I'm familiar with the material and I think you can use it at will for non commercial work with ackn. "One of the Georges," said Psmith, "I forget which, once said that a certain number of hours' sleep a day--I cannot recall for the moment how many--made a man something, which for the time being has slipped my memory."

        Thank you for instant reply. What about commercial apps? Gurmeet

          I don't really know about that. Besides this is Matlab library so you probably couldn't use it to build a commercial app if you wanted to. I remember I used one of their libraries to do face recognition (using eigenfaces, image pyramids, mahalanobis etc) and it took like 20 mins to do a decent sized image. "One of the Georges," said Psmith, "I forget which, once said that a certain number of hours' sleep a day--I cannot recall for the moment how many--made a man something, which for the time being has slipped my memory."

            Most of the device manufacturers provide a SDK, and the ones I've worked with are pretty much dirt simple to use. Be warned, there is no standard API. I work with Point of Sale systems, and while there is a lot of interest in this area, when most owners hear that the addition of the biometric device adds over $100 US per terminal, the fingerprint recognition gets scratched right off the requirements. I've also ran into situations where the device wasn't supported on the platform I was working on (CE.NET), they basically wanted me to write an API for them, for free, with source in exchange for giving me the hardware specifications.

              I googled for "fingerprint SDK" (with quotes) and the first result was an SDK from IBM. Its overview says "The IBM Fingerprint SDK is independent of the actual sensor used." Can this SDK be used in my project? Even if it can be, I'm not able to find out any SDK download page. Any more info on it? Also check out the first few results, there are some more sensor-independent SDKs available ( http://www.bioenabletech.com/fingerprints_software_development_kit.htm [^]) but no options for download. Thanks Gurmeet
