Try to get some visual feedback. There's a tool called fprint_demo. You can enroll and verify there. It shows images and detected minutiae. There aren't any good guidelines but in general try and see if the overall image looks good. Areas where the frames intersect should look as seamless as possible (seams produce false minutiae). The number of detected minutiae should be at least over 30. If possible, please send images you get with examples/img_capture. Which finger you scan doesn't matter (you can use someone else's if you still happen to have one from Halloween).</div><div><br></div><div>2. These Elans need a slower and steadier swipe than dedicated swipe fp readers. I mean the ones that were built for swipe. I think it takes me about 3 seconds to do a swipe. Pay attention to the tip of the finger: because the tip is curved it's hard to assemble a good image of it. I must say it does take some practice...</div></div><br><div class="ox-0f7257f122-gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Sun, Jan 28, 2018 at 2:25 AM wp12880529-timo wp12880529-timo < <a href="mailto:timo@teemze.de">timo@teemze.de</a>> wrote: <br></div><blockquote><u></u><div><p>Hi,<br></p><p><br></p><p>the enroll process seems to work.

First of all, you should be able to open finger.pgm in the same directory with an image viewer and see your finger. Then you can try exmaples/enroll and examples/verify to enroll and verify your fingerprint. If everything seems ok, install the driver with `sudo make install`. You will need fprintd daemon and a PAM module for login, sudo etc. On Debian/Ubuntu it's just `apt install libpam-fprintd`. Once it's installed, run `fprintd-enroll`. That's it.</span><div class="ox-0f7257f122-m_2707639669660721818ox-e3eb00b5e2-gmail_quote"><blockquote><div class="ox-0f7257f122-m_2707639669660721818ox-e3eb00b5e2-gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr"><br></div></div></blockquote></div></div>_______________________________________________ <br>fprint mailing list <br> <a href="mailto:fprint@lists.freedesktop.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fprint@lists.freedesktop.org</a> <br></blockquote></div><div><blockquote type="cite"><a href="https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/fprint" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/fprint</a> <br></blockquote></div></blockquote></div></blockquote></body></html>
