Infineon Technologies' FingerTIP evaluation kit enables the integration of a miniature fingerprint sensor into a wide variety of end-products including PCs, notebook computers, handheld devices, set-top boxes, ATMs, point of sale terminals, ticketing kiosks, building access systems, or any other application that would benefit from replacing PIN- or password-based user identification with biometric-based verification.
Infineon's FingerTIP sensor chip is a small (18 x 21 x 1,5mm) IC embedding a 288 x 224 pixel contact sensor array that images the lines and ridges of a human fingerprint when a user touches the device. Each pixel has an 8-bit data depth, enabling evaluation of subtle gradations (256 shades of grey) of a fingertip and their translation into a set of indices - the key identifying features of an individual fingerprint. Imaging and data transfer of an impression takes only milliseconds. The chip also incorporates extensive electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection features.
The company's new FingerTIP evaluation kit 2 - USB, demonstrates a biometric system using the FingerTIP sensor and FingerTIP software development kit (SDK), connected via USB interface to a PC. The evaluation kit consists of a FingerTIP sensor mounted in a small format PC-SC compliant smartcard reader unit plus extensive development and demonstration software. The hardware platform allows for storage of the biometric fingerprint template on a secure smartcard (included), on the PC hard drive or even in a client server environment, and theFingerTIP evaluation kit 2 can be connected directly to the USB port of a PC.
Software libraries included with the FingerTIP evaluation kit 2 are the Infineon software developer's kit (SDK) which performs all biometric functions, and a SDK for USB and smartcard communication allowing the integration of Infineon's biometric fingerprint recognition engine into PC-based USB and smartcard applications.
