MorphoSmart™ CBM Series
- The best, most compact optical modules on the market
- Easy integration of biometric functions into multiple applications
- High quality fingerprint acquisition
- Embedded processing capabilities: MINEX compliant Coder & Matcher inside
- FBI PIV IQS certification and fake finger detection available
- Extensive security features, including encryption and digital signature

Optical technology offers superior image quality
- High performance sensor: 500 dpi, 256 grey levels
- Available output formats include RAW, ISO 19794-4 or WSQcompressed (under license) images

Lessons learnt from real world deployments put into practice
- Mechanical/visual guides ensure intuitive finger placement
- Interfaces display key information to help users: live image, messages (position, pressure etc.) and fingerprint quality score

Large acquisition surface for optimized capture and repeatable placement
The CBM’s capture surface (14x22mm) ensures that the richest area on fingerprints is systematically captured time after time. Acquisition surface contributes significantly to the overall biometric performance:
- It determines the amount of minutiae data that can be captured
- Other, smaller sensors, allow different areas of the same finger to be presented with each placement, leading to poor data acquisition, narrow areas of overlap and matching errors
Technical specifications
-
Image Compression
Using WSQ algorithm from FBI/NIST
-
Biometric Feature Extraction to generate templates
Feature Extractor is MINEX/FIPS 201 compliant
Proprietary, ISO 19794-2 or ANSI 378 template formats available
Templates can be stored in CBM’s internal database
-
Biometric Matching
Matcher is MINEX/FIPS 201 compliant
1:1 authentication or 1:N identification
High accuracy: the False Acceptance Rate (FAR) is configurable down to 10-8 (depending on the security requirements) and maintained regardless of number of users in database
Fast matching (refer to the table entitled “2 variants available”)
-
CBM is capable of addressing juvenile fingers
