Overview
Fingerprint identification systems have been usually developed on PC
platform, although some tasks required a compact solution. Nowadays
various embedded and handheld mobile devices offer enough capabilities
to integrate biometrical recognition software into them.

The hardware part of an embedded system is mostly a stand-alone device that
contains processor, memory, fingerprint scanner and some output display. This
part can be developed according to project's specifics, or a ready-to-use device
can be obtained.
There is no need to start a sophisticated and costly fingerprint recognition
technology development, as it can be licensed for a reasonable price.
Additionally, there are technologies optimized for the capabilities of embedded
or mobile devices.
Neurotechnology offers the embedded fingerprint identification technology
that is suitable to develop a fast and reliable system on embedded or mobile
platform.
The technology
FingerCell 2.1 technology is compact, sensor-independent and cross-platform.
It offers decent reliability and identification speed for various mobile or
embedded devices. The FingerCell algorithm includes these proprietary solutions:
- Full tolerance to fingerprint translation, rotation and deformation;
- Ability to run on low speed processors;
- Ability to recognize a fingerprint from any part of it without any core
or delta points;
- Enrollment with features generalization, that combines several samples
of the same fingerprint for better quality;
- Identification (1:N) ability;
- Pre-sorting database entries using certain features for faster
identification.

The EDK (Embedded Development Kit)
FingerCell EDK is based on the FingerCell technology, and is intended for
embedded biometric systems developers and integrators. The EDK includes
libraries for major operating systems and embedded platforms, drivers for
embedded sensors and source codes for sample applications. The FingerCell ANSI C
source code package could be also obtained to port the software to another
platforms.
The following types of EDK are available:
- FingerCell Library EDK is intended for biometric system
projects using hardware based on ARM processors. You can
download trial
version of FingerCell Library EDK to try it on your hardware. Read

- FingerCell source code EDK is intended for large
biometric system projects using third party or custom hardware. It includes
FingerCell source code, samples and documentation for MS Windows CE and
Linux. Read
