VeriFinger Extended SDK contains all features of Standard SDK. Additionally, it contains a set of reusable COM/ActiveX components, created especially for rapid development of client/server application (for MS Windows only) using VeriFinger fingerprint identification technology. It supports client/server architecture; components can communicate over network and balance computer resources load. Server and client components can be run on the same computer or can be distributed over the network. For example, one computer on the network can be dedicated for server role (database management, fingerprint identification and verification) and the others will operate as clients (user interface and features' extraction). Components of Extended SDK supports Microsoft COM (Component Object Model) and can be used in various programming environments, which are compatible with Microsoft COM (Visual C++, Visual Basic, Visual Basic Script and others). This model speeds up fingerprint technology integration into existing applications and allows to avoid low level programming (API, DLL interfaces).
Comment: Extended SDK components are available only for Windows.
