Warwick Warp
• Incorporated Jan 2006.• Spin out from the Image
Processing Group, Department of Computer Science, University of Warwick.
• Offices at Venture Centre, Warwick Science Park, Coventry, UK.
Confidential
Technology
• Objective is to increase the accuracy of fingerprint matching.
• Technical problem is fingerprint variation and associated low quality issues; partial prints, background interference, scars, smudges, scratches, wear & tear, age & occupation, linear & elastic distortion.
• Increasing accuracy by dealing with fingerprint quality issues is important;• Opens up new applications where there
is a higher proportion of low quality fingerprints.
• High Proportion of Manual Labor• Latent/Forensic Applications• Mobile Applications• Military Applications
Confidential
Technology
• Innovative technology uses a new model based statistical approach to overcome many of these problems.
• New approach features;• Intrinsic mathematical representation of the
ridge flow structure.• Produces “idealized” fingerprint images that
preserve distinctive features • Specific model for semi-permanent features
e.g. scars or scratches• Capable of modeling partial prints• Models low contrast and smudged images
