Automatic Fingerprint Identification System: DERMALOG AFIS

DERMALOG AFIS is the product of decades-long experience in the development of Automatic Fingerprint Identification Systems ("AFIS") and is our company's core product. Worldwide, DERMALOG AFIS is used in national and international public institutions and companies, as it achieves the highest possible identification and hit rates in service – in small as well as in large databases.

The DERMALOG AFIS runs on all standard PCs, in particular those running Windows, Linux, Solaris and AIX operating systems, without any additional or special hardware and can be easily integrated into existing systems. It is available in a range of versions, from major installations to mobile laptop versions. It offers all global standards of AFIS fingerprint technology (ANSI/NIST, etc.), simplifying worldwide networking and the exchange of data with other AFIS systems. Simple and intuitive to operate, DERMALOG AFIS stands for the highest levels of reliability and security. Here are the advantages of the DERMALOG AFIS at a glance:

• AFIS for police and civilian applications (ANSI/NIST)
• Police database with tenprints (TP) and latent prints (LP)
• Includes TP-TP, TP-LP, LP-TP, LP-LP searching
• World's fastest AFIS coding and matching
• High-performance pre-filtration, adjustable using sample specimen
• Best performance in recognition rates
• No special hardware necessary, as commercially available standard hardware is used
• Runs on all hardware platforms and common operating systems such as Windows and/or Unix
• Use of standard databases, such as Oracle, SQL Server, Informix, etc.
• The customer has full authority over its own database. No access or data transfer to the AFIS as a result of remote maintenance
• Coding and matching of
• epidermal ridges
• forks
• pattern centers
• deltas
• Integration of digital photos and signatures
