VeriEye Standard SDK and Extended SDK

VeriEye SDK is based on VeriEye iris recognition technology and is intended for biometric systems developers and integrators. The SDK allows rapid development of biometric applications using functionality from the VeriEye algorithm that ensures relable fast iris identification. VeriEye can be easily integrated into the customer's security system. The integrator has complete control over SDK data input and output.

VeriEye is available as the following SDKs:

• VeriEye 2.0 Standard SDK is intended for PC-based biometric application development. It includes Matcher and Extractor components, programming samples and tutorials, eye iris scanner support modules and software documentation. The SDK allows the development of biometric applications for Microsoft Windows, Linux or Mac OS X operating systems.
• VeriEye 2.0 Extended SDK is intended for biometric web-based and network application development. It includes all features of Standard SDK. Additionally, the SDK contains a ready-to-use matching server.

The table below compares VeriEye 2.0 Standard SDK and VeriEye 2.0 Extended SDK.

VeriEye Matching Server

VeriEye Matching Server software is not included in VeriEye 2.0 Standard SDK.

VeriEye Matching Server is ready-to-use software that performs the identification and verification of irises on the server side. The server is intended to be used in web-based and other network-based systems.

VeriEye Matching Server runs on PCs with Microsoft Windows or Linux and includes these additional components:

• Server administration tutorials that show how to receive information about server state.
• Configuration assistance tool.
• Support modules for MySQL, Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server and SQLite databases.
• Sample client applications:
  • C# sample (for Microsoft Windows)
  • C sample (for Linux)

VeriEye Extractor component

VeriEye Extractor creates iris templates from iris images.

VeriEye Matcher component

VeriEye Matcher performs iris template matching in 1-to-1 and 1-to-many modes.
