help me in any way in my project..........
I am a student of M.Sc.I.T
Currently I am working in a project on FingerPrint Recognisation
I have encountered a problem
My problem is "how to get the image from the device(fingerprint scanner) to the picture box control in Visual Basic". The problem is that I don't have the SDK of the device.The device which I am using is that of Digital Persona U.are.U 4000 scanner.
Is there any other way to get an image from device without using SDK?????????

it will be very hard without the SDK. The only way I can think of is by researching the interfaces exposed by the driver of the scanner. This can be done by reverse engineering the driver see, interfaces (entry points) that it exports to user mode application. But, this is very hard for someone who's never carry out Reverse Code Engineering before .
 

Re: hardware programming

What is Reverse Code Engineering ?
 

hardware programming

Reverse Code Engineering means
disassempling the driver code, then understand it's process from assemply language using debugger or disassempler like
w32dasm
or softice
