    摘要: Systems and methods for generating a three-dimensional representation of a surface using frustrated total internal reflection. The system may obtain a two-dimensional image of an object in close proximity to an imaging surface. The intensity of the electromagnetic radiation received for individual points on the object may be determined. The system may determine a distance between the imaging surface and the object at each of the individual points based on a correlation between the electromagnetic radiation transmitted towards the imaging surface and the electromagnetic radiation reflected from the imaging surface. The determined intensity of the electromagnetic radiation may indicate the electromagnetic radiation reflected from the imaging surface. A three-dimensional representation of the object may be generated based on the two-dimensional image and/or the determined distances between the imaging surface and the object at each of the individual points.

    摘要: A software implemented system and method for algorithmic correction of systematic image distortions within fingerprint imaging systems. The system and method may implement a three dimensional geometric model of a fingerprint imaging system to discover where a configuration prescribed by a conceptual fingerprint imaging system and an actual configuration of a manufactured fingerprint imaging system differ. By describing this difference using the geometric model, images captured by the manufactured fingerprint imaging system can be rectified in operational use to generate rectified images with relatively low amounts of distortion present.

    摘要: The present invention provides a large format fingerprint capture apparatus, system and method that is low power, compact, and lightweight and has a platen area greater than 3.0 square inches. The present system is typically powered, controlled, and exchanges data over a single data/control/power connection to a host PC, e.g., a desk top computer, PDA, or laptop computer although the system can also be used in a wireless fashion with a power subsystem so no physical connections are required. In a preferred embodiment the large format fingerprint device is directly connected to a completely disconnected portable PC, such as a laptop having only a battery power source. The primary system components of the present invention combine to minimize power, size and weight and, thus, enhance portability and battery life. The system typically includes a light source, a prism, a camera (including the lens), and a case. Optional elements comprise holographic elements such as gratings and holographic optical elements (HOEs), a battery subsystem, magnetic stripe reader, barcode reader, platen heater, platen blower, and mirrors to divert the image beam.

    摘要: A fingerprint imaging system configured to capture an image of a friction ridge pattern of a subject (e.g., a fingerprint, a palm print, a hand print, a footprint, etc.). The system may include one or more components that reduce the impact of ambient light on the performance of the system. In some implementations, the system may reduce the impact of ambient light without requiring additional power (e.g., to generate an increased amount of radiation) and without including “external” hoods and/or covers designed to block ambient light prior to the ambient light entering system. Instead, the system may reduce the impact of ambient light on performance by blocking ambient light internally within the system along an optical path of radiation used to electronically capture an image of the friction ridge pattern.
