1Overview

TheEasyRead is amember ofDatastrip’s DSV3 familyof

mobilehand-held biometricterminalproducts designedfora

wide-rangeofidentification and IDmanagementapplications.

TheEasyRead is optimized forone-step readingofePassports;

however, it is ableto read awidevarietyofother opticalor

smartcard based credentials containingbiometricdata. Itis

capableofcomparingthis information with thebiometricdata

collected byits on-boardbiometrics sensors (fingerprintand

cameras). Itallows an operatorto capture biometrics and to

performquick, remoteID verification oridentification while

in thefield. Theterminalcan operatetotallystandalone, orit

can coordinatewith centralized systems viaarichsetof

communications interfaces. Itis availablewith remote

communications capabilities thatinclude:802.11/WiFi,

Bluetooth, and GSM mobilecellular.

Operatorscan acquire afingerprintimageand remotely

perform1-to-manyidentifications againstawatchlist, or

perform1-to-1 comparisons foridentityverification. Superiormatchingaccuracyis achieved through

AFIS-quality(Automated FingerprintIdentification System)biometricmatchingalgorithms and rugged

biometricsensors.

All oftheDSV3 familyofmobileterminals are ruggedand environmentallysealed units thatcan beused

in harsh and hostileenvironments. Theyare shock resistant(Mil STD810 compliant)and canwithstand

afall offourfeetto aconcretesurface. TheDSV3mobileterminals exceedIP54 specifications for

resistance to dustand water.

TheDSV3 is an open platformthatcomes with apowerfulsoftware programmingSDK (Software

Developer Kit)thatenables customers and systemintegrators to readilycustomizetheunit forspecific

applications and missions. Industrystandard interfacesand technologiesareused extensivelyto facilitate

theintegration with othersystems and to expeditethedeliverybestofbreedsolutions to themarket. This

approachallows customers to selectthetechnologies and components thatare themostappropriatefor

theirapplications and environments.

Theflexibilityand ruggedness oftheEasyRead makeit an idealsolution forIDverification and ID

managementprojects in markets and applications such as:

•Homeland Security •Immigration Control

•LawEnforcement •Airports

•MilitaryBases and Ships •Transportation

•Travel&Border Control •FinancialInstitutions

•Seaports •Schools and Universities

addingapplications (orapplications components such as ActiveXcontrols)thatrequire someaspectofthe

behaviorto beregistered.When theterminalis powered-on, thesaved registryis read and used as partof

WinCE startup. Datastrip ActiveXcomponents are registered (see DsVerifyRegInst application)and

then theregistrysettings are saved usingthis application. Theregistrycanalso besaved byhittingthe

Start/Suspend function;however, this application is provided to savetheregistryto non-volatilememory

withouthavingto warm-starttheunit.

6.4 Fingerprint CaptureUtility(DsVerifyFpCaptureTest.exe)

This application demonstrates thecapabilities oftheintegratedfingerprintimagesensor, and it provides

ameans ofexercisingthefingerprintimagingsystem. Theapplication hasseveralbuttons thatallowa

user to Scan to theDisplay or Scan to File. Sincethis application is provided as sourcecodein the
