Anyone done anything with this? A friend has asked me to build a system to record a child's fingerprints, photos, and general characteristics in a user friendly manner and write the data to a "business card cd". Doing all from a laptop. I can handle the photo and the user-friendly interface easily enough, but don't know where to start with the IR fingerprint scanner. Also, I'm not entirely sure an IR fingerprint is the way to go.

A conventional scanner would give you the flexability to take fingerprints, palmprints, and/or footprints. That would probably be a better way to go. The fingerprint scanners I've seen are mostly intended to take a single, adult finger.

Does a conventional scanner have enough resolution and/or contrast to pick up the ridges in a fingerprint? Would it show all of the loops, arches, and whorls, or a picture of a finger?

I was thinking of taking a conventional print first, then scanning that.

what's the point of the "business card CD" that seems short-sighted to me, and inappropriately techie approach.
