The present invention provides a large format fingerprint capture apparatus, system and method that is low power, compact, and lightweight and has a platen area greater than 3.0 square inches. The present system is typically powered, controlled, and exchanges data over a single data/control/power connection to a host PC, e.g., a desk top computer, PDA, or laptop computer although the system can also be used in a wireless fashion with a power subsystem so no physical connections are required.

1. A system configured to generate a composite image of a friction ridge signature of a subject, the system comprising: a platen comprising a first light-reflecting surface;a light source configured to emit light rays to illuminate a subject placed in contact with the first light-reflecting surface
1. A system configured to generate a composite image of a friction ridge signature of a subject, the system comprising: a platen comprising a first light-reflecting surface;a light source configured to emit light rays to illuminate a subject placed in contact with the first light-reflecting surface of the platen;a camera configured to capture images of the subject in contact with the first light-reflecting surface of the platen, through the platen, in an ongoing manner; anda processor configured to receive images of the subject captured by the camera, and to automatically determine whether a sequence of the received images includes a successful capture sequence, wherein a determination that the sequence of received images includes a successful capture sequence is made responsive to identification by the processor of a trigger in the sequence of received images indicating the beginning of a capture sequence and identification by the processor of a trigger in the sequence of received images indicating the completion of the capture sequence. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein processor is configured to determine a type of capture sequence, and to determine whether the sequence of received images includes a successful capture sequence of the determined type. 3. The system of claim 2, wherein the type of capture sequence comprises a roll capture or a slap capture. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to generate, responsive to determination that the sequence of received images includes a successful capture sequence, a composite image, wherein the composite image is formed from the images included in the successful capture sequence. 5. The system of claim 4, wherein the processor is configured to generate the composite image by merging the images included in the successful capture sequence. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to identify the trigger indicating the beginning of the capture sequence by comparing successive images in the sequence of received images. 7. The system of claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to identify the trigger indicating the completion of the capture sequence by comparing images in the sequence of received images that were captured subsequent to the trigger indicating the beginning of the capture sequence. 8. A method of generating a composite image of a friction ridge signature of a subject, the method comprising: emitting light rays toward a platen comprising a first light-reflecting surface to illuminate a subject placed in contact with the first light-reflecting surface of the platen;capturing images of the subject in contact with the first light-reflecting surface of the platen, through the platen, in an ongoing manner; andexecuting one or more modules on one or more processors to automatically determine whether a sequence of the received images includes a successful capture sequence, wherein a determination that the sequence of received images includes a successful capture sequence is made responsive to identification by the processor of a trigger in the sequence of received images indicating the beginning of a capture sequence and identification by the processor of a trigger in the sequence of received images indicating the completion of the capture sequence. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein determining whether a sequence of the received images includes a successful capture sequence comprises: determining a type of capture sequence, anddetermining whether the sequence of received images includes a successful capture sequence of the determined type. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the type of capture sequence comprises a roll capture or a slap capture. 11. The method of claim 8, further comprising generating, responsive to determination that the sequence of received images includes a successful capture sequence, a composite image, wherein the composite image is formed from the images included in the successful capture sequence. 12. The method of claim 11, wherein the composite image is generated by merging the images included in the successful capture sequence. 13. The method of claim 8, wherein identification of the trigger indicating the beginning of the capture sequence is performed by comparing successive images in the sequence of received images. 14. The method of claim 8, wherein identification of the trigger indicating the completion of the capture sequence is performed by comparing images in the sequence of received images that were captured subsequent to the trigger indicating the beginning of the capture sequence.
