Methods and systems for capturing biometric data
First Claim
1. A method for capturing biometric data of an individual comprising:
- displaying, by a computing device, a message facilitating capture of at least one digital image of a desired biometric modality, a visual aid, and the desired biometric modality of the individual, the displayed biometric modality of the individual being a different size than the displayed visual aid; and
capturing, by the computing device, at least one digital image of the individual in accordance with the message while the displayed biometric modality of the individual is inside the displayed visual aid.

Abstract
A method of capturing biometric data is provided that includes activating a security application in a device. The security application is activated by an operator of the device and is configured to cause the device to display an outline image. Moreover, the method includes displaying the outline image in a stationary position on a display of the device, positioning desired biometric data proximate the device such that the desired biometric data appears as a biometric image on the device display, and monitoring the outline and biometric images shown on the device display. Furthermore, the method includes positioning the device and the desired biometric data to better align the outline and biometric images when the outline and biometric images do not align and capturing the desired biometric data from an individual after approximately aligning the outline image with the biometric image.
