Abstract
An independent biometric identification system has an independent biometric identification server, a biometric administrator agent application, a biometric capture agent application, a biometric enrolling agent application, and a biometric database. The independent biometric identification server provides a biometric identification independently of individual applications implemented on a user's system. The biometric administrator agent, biometric capture agent, and biometric enrolling agent applications are clients of the independent biometric identification server.
Claims28
An independent biometric identification system comprising:
- an independent biometric identification server, said server providing a biometric identification independently of individual applications implemented on a user's system;
- a biometric administrator agent application;
- a biometric enrolling agent application;
- a biometric capture agent application;
- and
- a biometric database;
- wherein said biometric administrator agent application and said biometric enrolling agent application and said biometric capture agent application are clients of said independent biometric identification server.
A method of independent biometric identification comprising the steps of:
- selecting a capture agent;
- connecting a user's system to an independent biometric identification server using said selected capture agent;
- obtaining a user's biometric characteristics using a capture device said capture device being affiliated with a particular biometric application;
- conveying said obtained biometric characteristics to the independent biometric identification server using the capture agent;
- and
- using said selected capture agent to compare said conveyed biometric characteristics to templates stored in a database,
- wherein said capture agent is selected from a group of available capture agents such that said selected capture agent is configured in accordance with said particular biometric application affiliated with said capture device.
