title: Fingerprint features quantization
body: <p>I'm working on bio-metrics java project.</p>
  
  <p>I extracted minutiae points from fingerprint that consists of three values (x,y,Q).</p>
  
  <p>Values example:</p>
  
  <pre><code> x: 274
   y: 87
  angle (Q): 18
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I need to quantize the three values to single one (double of 16 bits).</p>
  
  <p>How it could be done?</p>
