MegaMatcher Standard SDK and Extended SDK

MegaMatcher SDK is intended for development of large-scale AFIS or multi-biometric identification products. Fingerprint, face, iris, voice and palm print recognition engines are included in MegaMatcher 4.2 SDK.

MegaMatcher 4.2 SDK includes server-side software and a set of modules for developing client-side applications. .NET components are included for rapid development of client-side software. MegaMatcher 4.2 supports BioAPI 2.0. To ensure system compatibility with other software, WSQ component is available, as well as modules for conversion between MegaMatcher template and biometric standards.

MegaMatcher 4.2 is suitable not only for developing civil AFIS, but also for forensic AFIS applications, as it includes an API for latent fingerprint template editing. Latent fingerprint template editing is necessary in order to submit a latent fingerprint (for example, one taken from a crime scene) for the identification into AFIS. Also MegaMatcher is able to match rolled and flat fingerprints between themselves.

These types of MegaMatcher 4.2 SDK are available:

• MegaMatcher 4.2 Standard SDK for developing a client/server based multi-biometric fingerprint-face-iris identification product. This SDK is suitable for network-based and web-based systems with database size ranging from several thousand records up to million records. The SDK includes ready-to-use server-side software and a set of components for developing client-side applications. Also one or more MegaMatcher Accelerator units or installation licenses can be additionally purchased for building high performance systems that match tens of millions of fingerprints and/or irises per second.
• MegaMatcher 4.2 Extended SDK for developing a large-scale network-based AFIS or multi-biometric identification product. The fault-tolerant scalable cluster software allows to perform fast parallel matching, processes high number of identification requests and handles databases with practically unlimited size. The SDK includes all components of MegaMatcher 4.2 Standard SDK and ready-to-use cluster server software. This SDK also allows to develop network-based and web-based systems.

The table below compares MegaMatcher 4.2 Standard SDK and MegaMatcher 4.2 Extended SDK. See the licensing model for more information on specific license types.

Notes:
(1) Fingerprint Client component includes Fingerprint Extractor, Fingerprint Segmenter, Fingerprint BSS and Fingerprint WSQ components, which can be also obtained separately.
(2) Face Client component includes Face Extractor and Face BSS components, which can be also obtained separately.
(3) Iris Client component includes Iris Extractor and Iris BSS components, which can be also obtained separately.

MegaMatcher 4.2 SDK includes programming samples and tutorials that show how to use the components of the SDK to perform fingerprint, face and iris template extraction or matching against other templates. The samples and tutorials are available for these programming languages and platforms:
