A web-enabled live scanner is provided. In one embodiment, a live scanner includes an image interface capable of being coupled to a network. A camera detects an image of a print. The image is stored in a memory. The image interface includes a web server, socket server, and a picture taker. A remote user can use a browser to control the web-enabled live scanner over a network.

Web-enabled live scanner and method for control

A system and method is provided for generating a preview display of a captured print image from a non-planar platen and for generating a high resolution display of a user-selected area of the preview display. The display processing system comprises a preview generation module and optionally a high resolution display processing module. After a group of captured radial scan line images is received, the preview generation module determines the representative pixel values for pixels in the group. The polar coordinate system position of the respective group is then converted to a position in the display window coordinates. The representative pixel values are plotted at the corresponding display window coordinates. The operator can request a high resolution display of an area of the preview display. When a request is received, the captured image data within that area is converted to rectangular system coordinates and displayed.

A dynamic image adaptation system and method for adjusting the quality of digital prints. The system includes an illumination source that illuminates an imaging surface of a live scanner optical system, the live scanner optical system scanning a biometric object placed on the imaging surface, a camera for capturing the print image of the biometric object placed on the imaging surface, a memory that stores data generated in the system, and a controller that adaptively controls at least one of the illumination source or the camera to obtain the print image with the predetermined quality. The controller adaptively controls the camera and the illumination source by adjusting one or more of contrast, gain, and integration time for the camera, and illumination for the illumination source.

Dynamic image adaptation method for adjusting the quality of digital prints

Systems and methods perform access control and mobile identity verification utilizing a memory, maybe on a handheld device, that stores at least biometric data, such as minutia. The handheld device may also store other data, such as a threshold value and Wiegand data. The data may be stored in a memory, a magnetic strip, a code, a bar code, or in all of these devices associated with the handheld device. The handheld device may be a SmartCard or the like. The threshold value may be a required value or parameter generated from input criteria based on biometric data read and extracted by an extracting system during an enrolling process. The threshold value is used during extracting, matching, or both, to most accurately determine the identity and characteristics of an individual wanting access to an accessed system or being questioned by law enforcement in the field.

Systems and methods utilizing biometric data

A system and methods controls access to an accessed system utilizing a two-factor requirement for admittance. One factor may be biometric data read and extracted from an individual wishing to gain access to the accessed system. The other factor may be an electronic key signal received at an input device of the access control system that is converted to an input signal. In some instances, the input signal is used to access correlating biometric data in a memory. Then, the extracted live biometric data and the stored biometric data are compared to generate a matching result signal. The matching results signal is transmitted to a Wiegand access control panel to control access to the accessed system. In other instances, the extracted live biometric data is compared to biometric data stored in a memory corresponding to a plurality of individual's biometric data that are allowed access to the accessed system. If there is a match, an ID biometric signal is generated and transmitted to the Wiegand access control panel. Along with the ID biometric signal, and ID input signal is transmitted from an input device to the Wiegand access control panel, where the ID input signal is based on receiving an electronic key at the input device. Then, based on a comparison between the ID biometric signal and the ID input signal, the Wiegand access control panel controls access to the accessed system.
