Live Scanning is the process of capturing fingerprints electronically for submission to specific agencies, archiving, or fingerprint card printing.
Live Scan fingerprints are generally required for electronic submissions to various state agencies, programs, and industries.
Fingerprint Biometrics, also known as Fingerprint Identification Technology, is over a century old and has been one of the most highly used methods for human recognition and identification. Despite being over 100 years old, automated biometric systems have only been made readily available to the public for the last two decades or so. Since fingerprints have a broad acceptance with the general public, law enforcement, and the forensic science community, they will continue to be used with many government legacy systems and will be utilized in new systems for evolving applications. Fingerprint identification will continue to evolve as the organized standards of Local, State, and Federal government adapt.
