libfprint
|
| In order to interact with fingerprint scanners, your software will interface primarily with libfprint's representation of devices, detailed on this page | |
| These functions allow you to scan the system for supported fingerprint scanning hardware | |
| Internally, libfprint is abstracted into various drivers to communicate with the different types of supported fingerprint readers | |
Stored prints are represented by a structure named fp_print_data | |
| The stored print documentation detailed a simple API for storing per-device prints for a single user, namely fp_print_data_save() | |
| Libfprint offers several ways of retrieving images from imaging devices, one example being the fp_dev_img_capture() function | |
| These functions are only applicable to users of libfprint's asynchronous API |
