BioEngine® Fingerprint SDK


The BioEngine Fingerprint SDK contains fingerprint matching and recognition capabilities that allow developers to create custom one-to-one verification applications such as time and attendance, transaction verification, physical access, information security and ID programs. The product incorporates our fingerprint recognition technology and supports the full suite of DFR and BioTouch fingerprint readers.

BioEngine SDK is composed of four dynamic link libraries (DLLs) that contain C-language functions and has a programming interface that can be used easily in most modern programming languages.

The libraries are as follows:

  • BioEngine Library: the central functional library of functions composed of four modules
    • Licensing Module
    • Quality Check Module
    • Template Creation Module
    • Verification Module
  • Media Processing Library: common functions for processing images throughout the Identix SDK product line and including
    • Image and video capture functions
    • Image compression functions
    • Image display functions
  • Common Library: common buffer management functions used throughout the fingerprint SDK product line
  • Standards Formatting Library: common functions for formatting biometric data to ANSI and ISO standards formats and including:
    • CBEFF header blocks for Patron formats A, C, ICAO and PIV
    • Multi-part face, fingerprint and iris binary data blocks (BDBs) and compliant BDB content for the following ANSI and ISO standards:
      • ANSI 378-2004 and ISO 19794-2-2005 fingerprint minutiae
      • ANSI 379-2004, iris polar and rectilinear images
      • ANSI 381-2004 and ISO 19794-4-2005, fingerprint images
208-fingerprint
  • Powered by top-ranked BioEngine® Fingerprint SDK algorithms
  • Over 100 million BioEngine-based templates being used worldwide
  • Used by organizations in wide-ranging markets including healthcare, financial and telecommunication as well as by state, local and federal governments to protect against authorized access to computer networks
