FingerFile Live - Scan Fingerprint Booking System

A product of Startek Engineering Inc., the FingerFile Live-Scan Fingerprint Booking System generates full-scale, FBI-accepted tenprint records by electronically scanning and capturing live fingerprints. Specifically designed to meet the needs of law enforcement agencies and other organizations that require fingerprint record systems, FingerFile is far superior to the conventional ink method.

• Shaper images:
• FingerFile consistently delivers the sharpest fingerprint images possible. At 500 pixels per inch, its side-to-side and tip-to-crease tenprints meet FBI image resolution standards. Plus, FingerFile's computerized format avoids common problems associated with ink, such as over-inking, under-inking, and smearing.
• Faster input:
• Guessing takes time. That's why FingerFile provides a continuous on-screen display. With instant feedback, the operator can spot an imperfect image right away and rescan a single print without repeating the entire process. Not only does this eliminate the need to manually check each fingerprint card later, it also cuts the time it takes to correct initial mistakes.
• Greater flexibility:
• With FingerFile, each set of fingerprints needs to be taken only once. The images are stored on file and may be printed in a variety of single and double-sided formats. The high-resolution laser printer creates as many official documents as necessary with guaranteed quality results.
• Proven AFIS interface:
• 100% AFIS compatible, FingerFile provides and ideal front-end for AFIS applications. Throughout the development of the FingerFile, Startek has worked side by side with NEC Taiwan to create a seamless AFIS interface with proven reliability.
• Simple operation:
• The user-friendly interface guides the operator throughout the fingerprinting process. With step by step instruction, FingerFile signals the order of fingerprint input, as well as the start and stop points for the perfect rolled-print image. Furthermore, it provides instant feedback through continuous real-time display, which allows the operator to immediately reject and rescan unacceptable prints.
• Industrial strength protection:
• FingerFile is built to withstand the often hostile booking environment. All of its components, including the keyboard, monitor and scan window, retract into a reinforced metal cabinet for maximum protection.
• Ergonomic design:
• FingerFile is designed to make capturing fingerprints quick, efficient, and physically easier on the operator. The angled display screen is in the same field of vision as the scan window so the operator can simultaneously monitor the scan window and the real-time display. In addition to its full-size keyboard, FingerFile features a 6-button console which puts all the major functions within easy reach and a handy foot pedal which allows the operator to start and stop scanning even when his hands are full.
• Complete mobility:
• Packaged within one mobile unit, FingerFile can go anywhere, enabling fingerprint capture from subjects at remote locations. FingerFile is constructed with wheels for smooth maneuverability on flat surfaces, and it can be separated into three portable components making transporting it up, down and around hassle-free.
• Amazing versatility: Connected to a host system, as part of a network, or used independently, FingerFile is a powerful fingerprint processing tool.
• With an AFIS, FingerFile functions as a tenprint capture peripheral and connects directly to the main system for immediate fingerprint data input.
• In a network, FingerFile transfers fingerprint data to and from remote destinations in minutes. This bypasses mailing and delivery delays, allowing speedy communication, identification, and verification.
• With a UNIX workstation, FingerFile forms a small-scale operationg venter for tenprint booking, fingerprint inquiry, and identity verification.
• As a self-contained unit, FingerFile collects tenprint records and stores them, along with relevant personal information, for later use in AFIS applications.
