MiniCheck Introduction

MiniCheck-OCR developed a front-end application called
MiniCheck MGR to scan, validate and process checks and ID
cards.

Electronically processes checks

Validates photo ID such as driver’s license and state ID’s to
prevent fraud.

Uses a set of advanced algorithms to decipher the
electronically encoded data in either the magnetic strip or
barcode

Existing Standalone System

Enhanced by previous Capstone Team #3.

Consists of User Interface and Configuration windows.

Configuration Window


Provides an option to select the required scanner.

Provides an option to select the window size
User Interface Window


Displays parsed information
Uses Atalasoft Imaging toolkit to capture and parse the card
information and convert into meaningful information.

with the MiniCheck ID
 MagnePrint - used MagnePrint API to get the score in
backend without redirecting the user to the MagneSafe website
in order to continue the transaction.

MagnePrint Technology

One of the major and important scanners provided

Detects counterfeit credit cards by reading a unique magnetic
"fingerprint" on the stripes of credit cards and other objects
that carry magnetic information.

Has millions of magnetic particles that are organized in a
unique way.

Analyzes these particles and determines the card's "signature"
number, which then can be put in a database.

When a card is swiped through a designated terminal, the
card's signature, or "Magneprint," can be compared to the
recorded signature.
