USB Fingerprint Devices for Highly Secure Desktop Applications

All-in-one solution: superior performance Enrollment, Verification and Identification
FIPS 201 and MINEX compliant Feature Extractor & Matcher onboard
FBI PIV IQS certification and fake finger detection available on MSO 1300 E3
Extensive security features, including encryption and digital signature
SDK available for integration into Windows, Linux and Android platforms

The MorphoSmart™ 1300 Series (or MSO 1300 Series) is a range of compact biometric USB devices.
They use Morpho’s patented optical technology and fingerprint algorithms, both acknowledged
worldwide for their high levels of performance and their exceptional robustness. Morpho fingerprint
technology is ranked #1 by NIST for accuracy.
The MorphoSmart™ 1300 Series offers a reliable, ergonomic and cost-effective solution for enrollment,
identity verification and user identification. Their match-on-device or match-on-card functions guarantee
the faultless protection of information and the security of desktop applications.

Why optical technology?
We selected optical technology for
our sensors as it has significantly
more operational and accuracy
advantages compared with other
technologies.

Optical technology offers superior
image quality
High performance sensor: 500 dpi,
256 grey levels
Available output formats include
RAW, ISO 19794-4 or WSQcompressed
(under license) images
Lessons learnt from real world
deployments put into practice
Mechanical/visual guides ensure
intuitive finger placement
Interfaces display key information to
help users: live image, messages
(position, pressure etc.) and
fingerprint quality score

Large acquisition surface for optimized capture and
repeatable placement
MSO 1300 Series capture surface (14x22mm) ensures that the
richest area on fingerprints is systematically captured time after
time. Acquisition surface contributes significantly to the overall
biometric performance:
It determines the amount of minutiae data that can be
captured
Other, smaller sensors, allow different areas of the same
finger to be presented with each placement, leading to poor
data acquisition, narrow areas of overlap and matching errors

While most sensors on the market are only capable of producing fingerprint images, the MSO 1300 Series
devices are also capable of processing them internally, running powerful algorithms directly on their
embedded processor.
1 Image Compression using WSQ algorithm from FBI/NIST
2 Biometric Feature Extraction to generate templates
Feature Extractor is MINEX/FIPS 201 compliant
Proprietary, ISO 19794-2 or ANSI 378 template formats available
Templates can be stored in the internal database
3 Biometric Matching
Matcher is MINEX/FIPS 201 compliant
1:1 authentication or 1:N identification
High accuracy: the False Acceptance Rate (FAR) is configurable down to 10-8 (depending on the
security requirements) and maintained regardless of number of users in database
Fast matching (refer to the table entitled “2 designs, 4 variants”)
Match-on-Card is available on MSO 1350 V3 / MSO 1350 E3
4 Capability of addressing juvenile fingers
5 An anti-latency feature detects fingerprint traces reactivated under certain lighting conditions

Embedded security features
When sensitive data (image or template) needs to be shared with a Host System, the MSO 1300 Series
devices are capable of securing them before dispatching.
1 Multiple security principles available:
Symmetric and asymmetric keys,
Key derivation,
Hashing algorithm,
Random number generator,
etc.
2 Image and Template Encryption for the sake of confidentiality
3 Template Signature (X9.84 standard) to guarantee the origin and the integrity of the data sent to the
Host System
4 The communication channel between device and Host/Distant System can be protected using either
Secure Tunneling or Offered Security mode
