About
The Project
FingerSCAN EPrintsID is a cutting-edge biometric solution designed to help law enforcement officers and investigators capture fingerprints digitally with speed and accuracy. Replacing the outdated ink-based method, this Android-based application integrates with the Watson Mini FBI-certified fingerprint scanner to generate e-fingerprints on the go. Built with compliance to DHS 4300A and FBI CJIS mobile security policies, the solution enhances safety, secures demographic data, and ensures precise identification of individuals at crime scenes. By leveraging Microsoft Azure government cloud hosting, advanced APIs, and a robust mobile interface, the system provides reliable, secure, and portable fingerprint scanning that accelerates investigations and strengthens overall security measures.
Process We Followed
After lining up salient details related to the project, our team outlined a course of action that would be followed to develop a comprehensive solution. The process comprised of identification of problems, considering the relevant factors of the solution, taking note of common challenges faced, technology stack to be used and coming up with the outcome in the end.
1. Problem Identification
Traditional ink-based fingerprinting delays investigations and risks accuracy. A digital, portable biometric scanner was needed to capture secure e-fingerprints, improve safety, and comply with DHS 4300A & FBI CJIS policies.
3. Solution Implementation
Through user research, product discovery workshops, and competitor analysis, we designed a secure, accurate, and cloud-based fingerprinting solution, aligning features with user needs while identifying market opportunities and best practices.
2. Feasibility Study
To aid law enforcement in fast, accurate identification, we proposed an Android app integrated with certified biometric scanners, enabling digital fingerprint capture, palm prints, double-sided cards, secure transfers, and batch scanning automation.
4. Challenges Faced by QSS
Developing a secure, compliant fingerprint scanning app required integrating cloud-based biometric tech, capturing ISO/ANSI-standard prints, ensuring accuracy, replacing ink methods, enabling fast scans, and adding instant SDK functionality.
5. Final Outcome Achieved
The FingerSCAN EPrintsID app enables investigators to capture fingerprints on-site, leveraging Kotic and Azure cloud, with fast scanning, double-sided cards, secure APIs, data protection, and easy, reliable access for field use.
Problem Identification
There are cases where investigating officers require a fingerprint but by dint of conventional method of scanning, the identification of criminals and other people at a crime scene may take time. Therefore it becomes significant to put an end to the ink-capturing method of securing fingerprints and implement a digital and portable biometric mobile scanner.
- Increase overall safety and security
- Capture digital fingerprints
- Secure demographic details and fingerprint images
- Build a solution compliant with DHS 4300A and FBI CJIS mobile security policies
Feasibility Study
A law enforcement officer, while investigating a case, needs to be precise and quick. With that said, the person is liable to bring people to justice with proper and accurate identification of a culprit. Therefore, to help the team and such officers in the matter, we aim to create an android application which allows crime investigators to capture digital elimination fingerprints in the phone itself.
- Certified biometric scanner to generate electronic fingerprints
- Generates a double-sided elimination fingerprint card
- Incorporated with palm print biometrics
- Secure FTP or uploaded to a workstation via USB connection
- Automates scanning of fingerprints for large batches
Solution Implementation
To build a secure and efficient fingerprint scanning solution, we conducted thorough planning and requirement analysis. This phase defined the app’s core features, technological approach, and compliance needs, laying the foundation for a user-centric and high-performance system.
User research
Two of the most crucial elements of an app is its design and target audience. Therefore, to get the frame of reference for both the components, we enacted research among the target audience. This made us cogitate about the entire app development strategy.
Product discovery workshop
Product discovery workshops undoubtedly add great value to any project. In order to assess the secure and private fingerprinting solution, it was significant to conduct a discovery workshop and educate the members about the project comprehensively who are involved in the development process. The session nurtured the team and further helped them to understand how the product is going to be beneficial for the target audience.
Not every app is the same and this is why every app is followed by a different plan of action. To engineer an all-inclusive and highly enhanced security solution, the team discussed the project requirements down to the smallest possible details. They mainly put the discussion into incorporating features that can capture digital fingerprints and also ensure accuracy. By session came to an end, we enlightened our client to formulate advanced cloud-based biometric technology.
Competitor Analysis
While developing any of the solutions, keeping a close eye on your competitors, who are in the same business as yours, is a must. Consequently, we carried out a competitive analysis to identify strengths, threats, and opportunities for our solution.
Challenges Faced by Team QSS
Unlike other software solutions, developing a fingerprint scanning solution can be quite a challenging task because apart from consolidating intuitive dashboard and UI, the application has to be secured with regulatory compliance also. Our noteworthy team of app developers came across the following challenges -
- State-of-the-art cloud-based biometric technology
- Capable of capturing ISO/ANSI standard fingerprint images
- Ensures security and accuracy of the biometric identification
- Put an end to the ink-capture method of capturing fingerprint
- Scan and rescan fingers relatively quickly
- SDK allows officers to add instant biometric functionality
Final Outcome
After exploring the project requirement, our team of well-versed developers, with technical know-how, crafted a solution that leverages investigators to capture the fingerprints right at the scene of the event. The solution was subsumed under Kotic programming language with notable features which are as follows -
- Microsoft Azure government cloud hosting
- Top-level identification with API implementation
- Digital fingerprint scanner speeds up the processing time
- Originate double-sided elimination fingerprint card
- Data leak prevention
- Secure, simple and accessible to all
