A fingerprint program that connects with fingerprint scanners and uses the Cwsq, Mindtct and Bozorth3 to check whether a fingerprint match or not with a existing fingerprint gallery.

Futronic Cwsq Mindtct Bozorth3 (FCMB)

This project was done to make the life easy for those who have a futronic device but didn't find a free SDK, or isn't able to pay for getting one.

This program communicates with a Futronic device, writes the read finger into a bitmap and extracts its minutiae into a .xyt file. You can use the included software Bozorth3 to calculate minutiae scores using .xyt files.

This project uses three softwares of NBIS (NIST Biometric Image Software (National Institute of Standards and Technology)), Cwsq (compress a bitmap file into a wsq), Mindtct (extracts fingerprint minutiae), and Bozorth3 (Matches fingerprints minutiae).

Currently, it only makes connection with fs80 and fs88 scanners, but you can try with other Futronic's devices, good luck!

Install

Just download the executable package compiled to your platform from the release section.

Usage

fcmb <directory> <name>

It'll request a finger, then a bitmap image (name.bmp) and a minutiae map file (name.xyt) will be generated on the directory you informed so that you can visualize the finger scanned and use its minutiae with Bozorth3 according with your needs.

Contributing

Clone the repository, then you gonna need a futronic' scanner, the three programs mentioned above compiled to your platform (See nbis) or you can get from the executable package for your platform on the release section, and then you'll be ready for development.

fcmb's Issues

Failed to open file C:/registros/bmp/Santiago2.bmp for writing!

Hello!!!
You really made my life easier with this! Just a thing when I roll my finger... here the log:

C:\Users\Santiago\Desktop\superFutronic\fcmb-v1.1.2-windows-x86_64\fcmb>fcmb C:/registros/ Santiago2
Please put your finger on the scanner:
Please put your finger on the scanner:
Fingerprint image is written to file: C:/registros/Santiago2.bmp
Failed to open file C:/registros/bmp/Santiago2.bmp for writing!

I opened cmd as Administrator...
What's going on here???

By the other way,
XYT file is generated and I can play matchs with Bozorth3 =D
Rockit!

Thankssss!!!

How to generate bozorth3, cwsq and mindtct?

Hello Derick,

I'm trying to use your code, and I'm not being able to generate that three binary files. Of course, they are in the release file, but I would like to understand how do you made these files.

Could you explain?

Thanks
