About the IAFIS IQS
The IAFIS IQS specifies the data acquisition standards for the fingerprint portion of the virtual fingerprint card, such as modulation transfer function (MTF) and signal-to-noise ratio. The MTF measures how much of the fingerprint data can be acquired; reflects the quality of the optics, the scanner detectors and the analog to digital converters. The IQS also specifies quality thresholds for display devices (printers and CRTS) for the fingerprint data. IQS standards for printers and other display devices are mandatory for the purposes of FBI procurements.
