In our daily lives, we often encounter situations where our fingerprints and palm prints are captured for identity verification and immigration purposes. Even in criminal investigations, fingerprint and palm print collection is essential to help uncover critical information.
There are currently many fingerprint and palm print capture devices on the market. Today, I’d like to share the FAP60-CS466 Fingerprint and Palm Print Capture Device, launched by Shenzhen Xinquhang Technology. Let’s take a look at what makes this product special and how it meets the needs of everyday capture scenarios.
I. What is FAP60?
► What is FAP60?
FAP60, short for “Fingerprint Acquisition Profile 60,” is a mandatory standard for electronic fingerprint image quality established and promoted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). This standard specifies detailed minimum requirements for fingerprint images in terms of resolution, size, grayscale, distortion, and other aspects, aiming to ensure that fingerprint data collected worldwide can be compared, shared, and mutually recognized at a high quality.
Simply put, FAP60 serves as the “universal language” and “minimum standard” for fingerprint images. Images captured by devices that do not meet this standard will not be accepted into the FBI’s database or other systems that adopt this standard.
► What are the core standards of FAP60?
The FAP60 standard covers multiple technical specifications, the most critical of which are as follows:
Resolution: Must be ≥ 500 DPI.
Image Size: The valid capture area must meet the requirements for both single-finger rolling capture and four-finger flat capture.
Image Grayscale: At least 8-bit (256 levels of grayscale) to preserve rich fingerprint details.
Image Distortion: Must be kept at an extremely low level to ensure that fingerprint ridges and valleys remain undistorted.
Exceeding Standards, Surpassing Expectations:
Data Analysis: CoreQ FAP60-CS466
From its inception, Xingqihang’s FAP60-CS466 Finger and Palmprint Scanner was designed to meet the highest industry standards. It not only complies with the internationally recognized FAP60 standard but also aligns with China’s public security industry standard, the “Technical Specifications for Live Fingerprint Image Acquisition” (GA/T 625-2010).
Through a comparison of key specifications, we can see that Xinquhang Technology’s FAP60-CS466 finger and palmprint scanner not only fully complies with the mandatory requirements of the FBI’s FAP60 but also meets—and even exceeds—the technical requirements of the Ministry of Public Security’s GA/T 625-2010. This means that every fingerprint image it captures complies with both China’s public security system and global certification standards.
Beyond compliance, what other advantages does the Xingqihang FAP60-CS466
offer?
Compliance is merely the baseline; excellence stems from a deep understanding of user experience and application needs. Building on this solid foundation of dual standards, the Xingqihang FAP60-CS466 Finger and Palmprint Scanner offers three core advantages:
1. Ultra-slim Design for Convenient Use
The product measures just 122 mm × 102 mm × 15.3 mm. This significantly saves desk space, making it easy to integrate into various compact office environments, mobile police terminals, or immigration inspection kiosks, allowing for more flexible and aesthetically pleasing device deployment.
2. Supports Liveness Detection, Dramatically Enhancing Anti-counterfeiting Capabilities
The device integrates advanced liveness detection technology, fully aligning with the “live capture” principle emphasized by the domestic GA/T 625 standard.
It effectively distinguishes real human fingers from counterfeit items such as fingerprint gloves and fingerprint membranes, eliminating the risk of identity theft and fraud at the source and establishing a robust defense for high-security applications.
3. High Reliability for Harsh Environments
Fast Capture Speed: Four-finger capture reaches 4 frames per second, and single-finger rolling capture reaches 8 frames per second, improving work efficiency and reducing wait times for users.
Strong Environmental Adaptability: With an operating temperature range of 0°C to 50°C and a storage temperature range extending from -40°C to 85°C, it operates stably in various indoor and outdoor environments across northern and southern China, withstanding the challenges of extreme cold and heat.
High-Reliability Hardware: From component selection to full-unit testing, every step adheres to industrial-grade standards, ensuring the device remains as stable as ever even under prolonged, high-intensity use.
The Xingqihang FAP60-CS466 Finger and Palmprint Scanner not only meets both international and domestic standards but is also user-centric!
It is not merely a “compliant” device, but a professional finger and palmprint capture tool that stands out for its ultra-slim design, secure liveness detection, and robust environmental adaptability.
