IDKit - Fingerprint Identification SDK

IDKit - Fingerprint Identification SDK

Identification Process

Developers and integrators of fingerprint applications need to instantly identify individuals, to:

  • Avoid Enrollment Duplicates - Prevent individuals from registering more than once.
  • Accelerate Authentication - Eliminate PIN codes, passwords, smartcards or tokens.

IDKit is a fingerprint SDK searching up to 600.000 fingerprints per second on a single PC. Unlike ordinary fingerprint SDK, IDKit automatically handles exchanges with database and significantly simplifies programming.

Features and Benefits

IDKit SDK
  • High-speed Matching
    600.000 fingerprints per second allow instant fingerprint search results.
  • Integrated Database Management
    IDKit seamlessly loads the database in memory and automatically handles fingerprint storage and retrieval.
  • User Records
    Fingerprints are regrouped as user records. This results in a simple programming interface and intuitive function calls, such as RegisterUser, FindUser or RemoveUser.
  • Automatic Score Combination
    Similarity score of two users is calculated automatically without the need to manually match finger by finger.
  • Sensor Independence
    IDKit supports wide range of input formats, image resolutions and is compatible with various fingerprint scanners (optical, capacitive, thermal technologies).
  • IEngine™ Core
    Innovatrics world-class algorithm ensures accuracy and reliability.
  • Standard PC Hardware
    IDKit runs on standard PC - and does not require any special hardware.

Fingerprint readers

In order to provide complete, integration-ready solutions, we have built partnerships with leading fingerprint scanner vendors. Together with IDKit we provide IScanners - software library which can access variety of fingerprint scanners directly, without using vendor's proprietary image acquisition functions. IScanners is provided as an (optional) add-on to IDKit and supports the following fingerprint readers:
