Overview
Free Fingerprint Verification software development kit is a freeware SDK intended for adding fingerprint verification functionality into various applications. The SDK is most suitable for developing biometrical logon applications, but it can be used also for any other application that do not require to store more than 10 fingerprints.
Free Fingerprint Verification SDK functionality is based on a simplified version of VeriFinger algorithm. The SDK allows reading fingerprints from scanners and performing fingerprint verification (1:1 matching) only. Quality control can be applied to accept only good quality fingerprints from fingerprint scanners.
Free Fingerprint Verifications SDK supports Microsoft Windows 2000, XP and Vista operating systems for 32-bit processors.
Comparing FFV SDK and VeriFinger SDK
Free Fingerprint Verification SDK is based on the same technology as VeriFinger SDK. The difference is that VeriFinger SDK is a commercial SDK that offers much more capabilites for software developers.
Free Fingerprint Verification SDK allows to develop biometrical applications that verify a scanned fingerprint against a previously stored fingerprint (1-to-1 matching). The SDK does not allow to develop applications that read fingerprint images from files or perform fingerprint identification (1-to-many matching). The number of stored fingerprint templates is limited to 10 records in the application's database.
VeriFinger SDK allows to develop a wide range of biometrical applications that identify fingerprints taken from fingerprint scanner or image files against fingerprints stored in a database (1-to-many matching). Also, VeriFinger SDK does not have any limitations on fingerprint database size and allows to develop both standalone PC-based and Web-based application that use client-server architecture.
