Features of SecuGen SDKs

Easy to Integrate
SecuGen SDKs make it quick and easy to integrate SecuGen fingerprint scanning, template generation (minutiae extraction), and template matching functions (both one-to-one and one-to-many) into almost any type of sotware application.
Flexible for Most Development Needs
SecuGen SDKs are available as low-level API ("FDx") and high-level API ("BSP") packages that support a wide range of operating systems and development environments.
Support for Leading Biometric Standards
Many SecuGen SDKs support U.S. and international biometric standards and include algorithms that have been intensively tested by NIST for compliance.

Complete Documentation
Every SDK includes full documentation to assist with development and deployment.
Available Free of Charge - NEW!
SecuGen SDKs are now available free of charge. To request the "Pro" SDKs, you may use the online request form. To request all other SDKs, please contact us directly.

What's the Difference Between "Pro" and "Non-Pro" SDKs?

The "Pro" SDKs provide our latest algorithms that are designed for better performance and support leading biometric industry standards.
The "Non-Pro" SDKs provide our original algorithms that support a wide range of platforms as well as earlier models of SecuGen fingerprint readers.

What's the Difference Between "FDx" and "BSP" SDKs?

Both FDx and BSP types of SDKs are easy to use and provide everything you need to implement fingerprint functions including fingerprint enrollment (fingerprint capture & template extraction), template management, and verification (1:1 template matching).
The FDx SDKs provide low-level APIs giving you maximum flexbility in design.
The BSP SDKs provide high-level APIs with pre-made GUI wizards for fingerprint functions.
