Bromba Biometrics’ BioIDENTICA®
SDK Toolkit Now Supports SecuGen® Hamster™ Line of Fingerprint
Readers
Santa Clara, Calif., December 13, 2007
– SecuGen is pleased to announce that Bromba Biometrics
BioIDENTICA SDK is now compatible with SecuGen Hamster III, Hamster
Plus and Hamster IV fingerprint readers. The BioIDENTICA SDK allows
a simple integration of fingerprint technology into any existing or new
software application that can benefit from biometric authentication. Software
integrators need not worry about compatibility requirements for mixing
fingerprint sensing hardware devices from different vendors.
Dr. Manfred Bromba, CEO of Bromba Biometrics
stated, “SecuGen’s Hamster fingerprint readers combine mechanical and electrical
robustness with the unique ability to deliver superior image quality even
for dry skin conditions. Together with our software, the Hamster produces
virtually no false rejections. We are focused on providing our customers
with ‘best in class’ products, and we are proud to add the SecuGen fingerprint
readers to our product line.”
Won Lee, CEO of SecuGen added, “We are
very impressed with the ease of use of Bromba’s biometric SDK. Integrators
now have an easy-to-use toolset with which they can integrate all of SecuGen’s
fingerprint peripherals into their applications. We believe that the Bromba
SDK will enable many more developers to create biometrically enabled software
applications.”
