Three new, smaller sensors from Atmel, AuthenTec and Fingerprint Cards enhance TI's range of easy-to-use, affordable development tools for fingerprint-based security products With the DSP-based Fingerprint Authentication Development Tool (FADT) platform, developers can choose from a range of TI's DSP starter kits to create a complete development environment in order to quickly and easily evaluate different fingerprint sensors and verification algorithms on the same platform

DSP-based systems improve image enhancement, leading to greater accuracy and processing speeds.

These systems are helping to drive the mass-market adoption of fingerprint biometric technology.

According to the International Biometric Group (IBG), a consulting, integration and research firm focused on biometrics, the bio
