The FS50 is a professional Fingerprint Scanner from Futronic Technology with 1.6 x 1.5 inch (40.64 x 38.10 mm) scanning area. Its advanced optical system can capture a high quality image in 0.1 second. It can also handle bad fingers such as dry, wet, blurred and scarred without any problem. Its scanning window is crown glass prism with a thickness of 33mm. There is also special anti-scratching coating on the scanning surface of the prism. This makes FS50 even more robust and ensures long term heavy duty usage in any harsh environment.
FS50 can capture single finger, dual finger and roll finger image. It was certified by FBI to be compliant with PIV-071006 Image Quality Specification (view PDF) for Single Finger Reader and Mobile ID FAP40. So FS50 meets the US Federal Information Processing Standard 201(FIPS 201) for Personal Identification Verification (PIV) of Federal Employees and Contractors. It is also listed in the US General Services Administration (GSA) FIPS 201 Evaluation Program Approved Product List (http://www.idmanagement.gov/approved-products-list).
A unique serial number is factory-programmed into the USB Device Descriptor of each FS50. So every FS50 is traceable and this is very important for government identity management projects.
Futronic provides Application Programming Interface (API) for FS50 to capture fingerprint image on the following platforms:
> Windows XP/2003, 32 bit and 64 bit.
> Windows Vista/2008, 32 bit and 64 bit.
> Windows 7/8/10, 32 bit and 64 bit.
> Linux with kernel 2.4 or higher (for both x86 and ARM9)

Futronic provides fingerprint segmentation software to customers. With this software, the two finger image captured from FS50 can be separated into two individual images/files which are ready for next stage image processing. Other important function like WSQ compression and NIFQ fingerprint image assessment are also ready. A demo program is available on request. Interested customers are welcome to contact us to get this demo.
FS50 works with Futronic Windows SDK for multi-finger template extraction and matching.
