## FtrScanReader
Futronic Scanner Fingerprint Reader
## Futronic Cwsq Mindtct Bozorth3 (FCMB)

This repository contains a example of how to use the ftrScanApi library.
This program was done to facilitate the life of those whom has a futronic device but didn't find a SDK, or is not able to pay $1000 dollars to get one from Futronic company.

Currently, it only makes connection with a fs80 scanner, read and writes a fingerprint to a bitmap image file.
It program communicates with a Futronic device, writes the reading finger into a bitmap and extracts its minutiae into a .xyt file. You can use the included software **Bozorth3** to compare .xyt files.

### Building
There is a zip file with the compiled implementation of ftrScanAPI.h on the <code>res/</code> so you can use to link.
This project uses three softwares of NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology), **Cwsq** (compress a bitmap file into a wsq), **Mindtct** (extracts fingerprint minutiae), and **Bozorth3** (Matches fingerprints minutiae).

### Usage
<code>ftr_scanner new [filename]</code>
Currently, it only makes connection with a fs80 scanner, but you can try with others futronics devices, tell me if it works.

For example:<br/>
<code>ftr_scanner new test</code><br/>
If everything goes well, the scanner will request for a finger and it'll generate a <code>test.bmp</code> image of the finger scanned.
### Usage
<code>fcmb [directory] [name]</code><br/>
