Patent number: 7512256Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus, method, and computer program product for ridge map formation. The method for processing an image data structure to extract a feature defined by a plurality of contiguous data elements includes identifying a set of candidate image feature pixels, the set including one or more pixels from the image data structure; examining local image data surrounding one or more pixels of the set of candidate image feature pixels to identify a set of potential image feature pixels with each of the potential image feature pixels having a characteristic consistent with being associated with the feature; and identifying the feature in the image data using the set of potential image feature pixels by locating one or more of the plurality of contiguous data elements neighboring one or more pixels of the set of potential image feature pixels. The computer program product includes instructions executable by a processing unit, and those instructions perform the feature extraction as described herein.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 2004Date of Patent: March 31, 2009Assignee: ODI Security; LLCInventor: Roger A. Bauchspies

Publication number: 20060193503Abstract: A method including attempting a match of a series of sample biometric signatures into a database having one or more valid biometric signatures; accumulating a first number N1 of consecutive failed match attempts prior to a successful match wherein a failed match attempt occurs when one of the sample biometric signatures does not match any of the valid biometric signatures; comparing the first number N1 and the second number N2 to a predetermined threshold value M for a match comparison; validating a successful match when the comparing feat determines the first number N1 and the second number N2 both have a particular relationship to the predetermined threshold value M; and recording a second number N2 equal to the value of the first number N1 when a sample biometric signature matches one of the valid biometric signatures.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 8, 2005Publication date: August 31, 2006Applicant: ODI SECURITY; LLCInventor: Roger Bauchspies
