SDK contents and biometric components

MegaMatcher SDK is designed for development of large-scale AFIS or multi-biometric identification products. Fingerprint, face, iris, voice and palm print recognition engines are included in MegaMatcher 13.0 SDK.

MegaMatcher 13.0 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 13.0 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. Also, MegaMatcher 13.0 SDK includes support for signature pads.

MegaMatcher 13.0 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 13.0 SDK are available:

• MegaMatcher 13.0 Standard SDK for developing a client/server based multi-biometric fingerprint-face-iris identification product. This SDK is suitable for network-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 on Microsoft Windows, Android, iOS, Linux and macOS.
• MegaMatcher 13.0 Extended SDK for developing a large-scale network-based AFIS or multi-biometric identification product. The SDK includes all components of MegaMatcher 13.0 Standard SDK and MegaMatcher Accelerator software, which can be used for fault-tolerant scalable cluster software for fast parallel matching, processing high number of identification requests and handling databases with practically unlimited size. This SDK also allows to develop network-based systems.

The table below lists the biometric components which are included in MegaMatcher 13.0 Standard SDK and MegaMatcher 13.0 Extended SDK. The list can be narrowed with filtering by certain requirements based on the target biometric system. See the licensing model for more information on specific license types.

MegaMatcher 13.0 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:
