The Palm Print Image Processing license creates palmprint templates from palmprint images and is designed to be used in high-volume server applications, which run on server hardware with at least dual Intel Xeon Gold 6126 (2.6 GHz) processors. Also, it allows to integrate support for palm print template and image format standards and additional image formats with new or existing biometric systems based on MegaMatcher SDK.
The palm print template extraction requires much more time than fingerprints, as palm images are much larger compared to fingerprint images, but have similar features density.
An image of fingerprint, which was scanned with AFIS-class scanner at 500 ppi resolution, is usually at least 500 x 500 pixels (0.25 Megapixels). Full palm image, scanned at the same resolution, is 160 times bigger (40 Megapixels). After excluding white space, palm image is still about 50 times bigger than fingerprint image.
The Palm Print Image Processing license performs template extraction at a speed of 350 palmprints per minute.

The component allowsconversionbetween Neurotechnology proprietary palm print templates and ANSI/NIST-ITL templates.
The Palm Print Image Processing component also includes:
WSQ (Wavelet Scalar Quantization) image format support module. The WSQ format allows to compress a palm print image up to 10-15 times. WSQ compression process is "lossy", meaning that the reconstructed image is not equal to the original (some information is lost). However, the WSQ algorithm was specially designed to minimize the loss of palm print or fingerprint information therefore the reconstructed image is as close as possible to the original.
JPEG 2000 image format support module .
One Palm Print Image Processing component license is included with MegaMatcher 11.1 Standard SDK and MegaMatcher 11.1 Extended SDK. The license can be used on Microsoft Windows or Linux x86_64 platform. More licenses for this component can be purchased any time by MegaMatcher 11.1 SDK customers.
