Abstract
Now-a-days, websites allow users to do more than just retrieve information. They can build on the interactive facilities of of old internet to provide "Network as platform" computing, allowing users to run software-applications entirely through a browser.
Current project explores and implements a client/server based online Automated Fingerprint Identification System based on the Live Scan of the Fingerprint. The whole of the system can be broadly divided into following modules – fingerprint enrollment, Fingerprint Feature Extraction and storage, and Fingerprint Matching against enrolled Fingerprints of people.
A web-based user-interface is developed for capturing Live Scan and enrollment of Fingerprints. The web browser accesses the fingerprint sensor installed on client’s machine using the TWAIN interfacing standards, which makes this web-application independent

    - A fingerprint may be small and unnoticeable to the eye, and even look like many other peoples, but they are in fact very different. Every fingerprint has a different pattern that is unique and unlike anyone else’s. I compared two fingerprints and found that they may look alike from afar, but up close one goes one way, while the other does something else and completely different.…

    A fingerprint reader, or scanner, captures curves and indentations of a fingerprint. Organizations use fingerprint readers to secure doors, computers, and software. For example, a fingerprint reader can be set up to authenticate users before they can access a computer (Rossi). External fingerprint readers usually plug into a USB port. To save on desk space, some laptops include built-in fingerprint readers1.…

    However the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and National Institute for Science (NIST) standards were routinely required for new systems. The Biometric Standards were what elucidated the limitations of demographic based searches. The substituting of data was crucial for standards and Interoperability. All the standards have limits in images and minutiae M-1 is strictly 1:1, the interoperability is based upon images and all major automatic fingerprint identification system (AFIS) venders have deployed complaints with those standards and the venders have all delivered standards complaint images. The standards are not the complete solution for interoperability, automatic fingerprint identification system (AFIS) technology balances on three main areas. The first one is reliability, which is to find the culprit, the automatic fingerprint identification system (AFIS) requirement for this is 95%. The second one is the selectivity of misidentifying, which was set at as requirement of 1%. Finally, filter or penetration rate, this is how much of the data is search biometrically, automatic fingerprint identification system (AFIS) was 2% of this fingerprint database. With these three criteria’s, a system performance was measured in speed, accuracy, transaction volume and flexibility. The systems performance requirements evolve so the system must adopt to that evolution and the…

    The comparison of at least two types of specialized databases that have an advantageous effect undergoing such development are the Automated Fingerprint Identification system (AFIS) and the facial recognition in identifying a criminal. These two specialized databases are security-based computer systems that identify and locate a person in a matter of minutes providing factual information based on the summarized data. AFIS and facial recognition are essential tools that help to provide criminal justice and law enforcement agencies with fully integrated communications system with the ability to log on to a computer system to view necessary data among criminal justice professionals, while including a comprehensive range of security safeguards in order to prevent undesirable consequences from happening. Developing the ability…

    For over a century fingerprints have been one of the most used tools of forensic science. Fingerprints have been used to identify criminals of small crimes such as petty larceny stretching up the ladder to crimes as serious as those committed by International Terrorists. It has always been thought that no two people in the world have the same fingerprints. In 2004 however, something happened that caused many people to question the reliability of fingerprint identification.…

    “… [Galton] undertook the first definitive study of fingerprints and developed a methodology of classifying them for filing. In 1892, Galton published a book titled Finger Prints, which contained the first statistical proof supporting the uniqueness of personal identification. His work went on to describe the basic principles that form the present system of identification by fingerprints.” (Saferstein, pg. 8, 2009)…

    When identifying humans, finger prints are commonly utilized because of its unique patterns among individuals. It is found that what determines the pattern of fingerprint is what occurs in a layer of the skin called the basal layer. The surrounding layers of skin the outer layer the epidermis and inner dermis contribute to this pattern because the basal layer which grows faster than these layers causes this layer to fold creating the skin pattern. Ultimately the pattern will become visible on the surface of the skin however it is hard to destroy your finger prints…
