Is there an existing C# library that can be used to parse the information from a driver's license? I'm looking to parse the data directly from a swipe reader, so its a long string that needs to be broken down into it's components. I know that this is a big request, so I'm not interested in the validation of the numbers or even the license ID itself, I really just want to parse out the first and last name. I'm eventually interested in all 50 states but would like to see AZ and CA first.
Depending on the type of device, a drivers license scanner can scan barcodes, magnetic stripes, or both. They’ll display the information from the ID card on the screen and then indicate whether or not the customer is of legal age to shop. We sell two types of drivers license scanners: mobile or stationary. With a fake drivers license scanner, you can detect these high-quality fakes. It scans every aspect of the card, performing over 50 forensic checks, and compares it a library of authentic drivers licenses and documents. A forensic drivers license scanner is essential for high-profile businesses, such as casinos. Using our Quick Check-In feature utilizing a magnetic stripe reader or 2d barcode scanner (depending on your state's drivers license) you can expect to double the number of registered buyers and quadruple the number of new buyers checked in to your auction per minute. A driver's license reader is an optional piece of hardware, but it is so handy, that you will treat it as indispensable. Check out these options and see what works best for you! MAGTEK 3 TRACK, HID SWIPER. Driver’s licenses with a working magnetic stripe can be swiped through the magnetic stripe reader and the encoded information will pre-fill into the Check-Inn property management system. If you are in a state that does not have a magnetic stripe, or a good portion of your guests are from out of state, the Advanced ID Scanner is the best option for your property.

I haven't done an exhaustive search, but I have a little experience with this and I believe the answer is 'No'. Driver's licence formats vary by state and could potentially change often. However, if you're looking for just the first and last name, that should be fairly easy to figure out by trial and error. Most DL's aren't encrypted from what I've seen. Just setup your card reader through Hyperterminal or something similar and look at the output from you card swipes. https://resusa.weebly.com/download-netflix-movies-on-mac-os.html.

There might even be a C# library for parsing AAMVA compliant license data now (there wasn't in 2011 to my knowledge), which was the original question, which is why I replied 'No'.

I realize this question was asked quite a while ago; but I actually don't agree with @FishBasketGordo that the answer is no; if you read this Wikipedia article you'll see a very clearly specified format that all U.S. driver's licenses (with magnetic stripes) supposedly adhere to, as specified in a standard by the AAMVA.
I personally have done some work on a JavaScript library to do exactly what you're asking (extract name, number, and in my case a few other bits of info) and have had success with the states I've been able to test. Obviously I haven't gotten my hands on licenses from all 50 states, though.

I am not familiar with the driver's license strings which according to https://stackoverflow.com/users/783175/fishbasketgordo changes in various states, but it occurs to be that you have several choices.
- use regular expressions.
- use javascript (yes at the server) like suggested by the JInt package: http://jint.codeplex.com/discussions/240715 and then look for jQuery or node.js plugins
- use
