IDEX ASA will be demonstrating several prototypes implementing its award-winning SmartFinger Filmfingerprint sensor technology at the CARTES in North America Exhibition and Conferences 5-7 March 2012 in Las Vegas.
IDEX will display its partners' latest demonstration products embedding the SmartFinger®technology as well as the SmartFinger Secure Processor software (SSP) and the new Smartfinger evaluation kit.
CARTES in
North Americais a new convention with exhibition
and conference, presenting smart technologies to the large
and dynamic North American market.
"CARTES North America is the major industry trade show
for North America where the decision makers and key
suppliers in the smart security industry meet," said
Ralph W. Bernstein, CEO of IDEX, and continued "The
IDEX team is looking forward to demonstrate various
implementations of the SmartFinger created under the
cooperation agreements we entered into in 2011, as well as
the tools available to our customers and partners."

SmartFinger Secure Processor software
The SmartFinger Secure Processor software (SSP) is a
complete embedded authentication software solution to be
preinstalled on a microcontroller. The SSP interfaces the
fingerprint sensor on one side and the system controller on
the other. It does all the processing required to acquire
fingerprint images, build and store a small database of
enrolled fingers, and match images against the database.
This complete embedded biometric authentication solution
provides a faster time to market for systems using
biometric security.
The SSP software is implemented on a standard Cortex/M3 microcontroller. Communication is encrypted, and there is a choice between various interfaces. The SSP can be delivered with a combined sensor, or as part of a complete biometric module.
Smartfinger Evaluation Kit
The new Smartfinger evaluation kit is available for
customers who wish to evaluate the Smartfinger Film
fingerprint sensor. The evaluation kit connects to any
Windows PC via an USB port and allows for fingerprint
enrollment, verification and matching.
SmartFinger Film fingerprint sensor
The patented IDEX SmartFinger Film sensor is an ultra-thin
and bendable fingerprint sensor, based on state of the art
polymer technology. It has low power consumption and offers
superior biometric performance. The SmartFinger Film
fingerprint swipe sensor can be easily implemented into a
variety of applications requiring biometric authentication
such as one-time password devices, smartcards, ID cards,
mobile phones, access control devices and biometric tokens.
The technology is protected by multiple patent families
covering subjects such as sensing principles, sensor
component design, image processing algorithms. Combining
the extremely small software footprint with low-resource
microcontrollers and the thin and bendable form factor,
IDEX is able to offer a complete biometric authentication
solution tailored specifically for card applications
