Fingerprint Module Usage Guide

Adding Required Permissions

Manifest File Configuration:

• Add the following permission to your application's manifest file:'<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CLOUDPOS_FINGERPRINT" />'

• Ensure that permissions are correctly set in the manifest file to avoid operational issues with the fingerprint module.

Using Crossmatch Fingerprint Module

SDK and Documentation:

• To develop applications compatible with the Crossmatch fingerprint module, download the necessary SDK and documentation.

• Basic SDK (TCS1FingerPrintSDK):

  • Use this SDK for basic operations like fingerprint input and image acquisition.

• Advanced SDK (U.are.U SDK):

  • Utilize this SDK for more complex functions like fingerprint comparison or compression.

  • Note: The U.are.U SDK should not be used for fingerprint input. Specifically, the 'Reader' class from this SDK is not applicable for input purposes in your application.

  • It is crucial to integrate the appropriate SDK based on your application’s requirements.

WizarPOS fingerprint

Specification

You can get WizarPOS FP spec here.

API document

Please find com.cloudpos.fingerprint from java api doc.

• Compare ISO 2005 template, please use method compare, compareByFormat and identify;

• Compare ANSI 378 template, please use method compareByFormat(byte[] arryBuffer1, int format1, byte[] arryBuffer2, int format2);

• Convert between ISO 2005 and ANSI 378 template format, please use convertFormat(byte[] dataBuffer, int srcFormat, int outFormat).

API Demo

Please consult the apidemo from Samples

Distinguish different fingerprint modules

There is a property called wp.fingerprint.model. If value is tuzhengbig, it is WizarPOS FP module; if value is crossmatch, it is Crossmatch fingerprint module. The code snippet is as follows:

    String prop = getProperty("wp.fingerprint.model","");
        if (prop.equalsIgnoreCase("none")) {
            showNormalDialog("tips", "No fingerprint module.");
        } else if (prop.equalsIgnoreCase("tuzhengbig")) {
           //WizarPOS FP
        } else if (prop.equalsIgnoreCase("crossmatch")) {
           //Crossmatch FP
        }    
    public static String getProperty(String key, String defaultValue) {
        String value = defaultValue;
        try {
            Class<?> c = Class.forName("android.os.SystemProperties");
            Method get = c.getMethod("get", String.class, String.class);
            value = (String)(get.invoke(c, key, defaultValue ));
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }finally {
            return value;
        }
    }
