Fingerprint sensor module

31 July 2019 Computer/Embedded Technology

The One Touch Access 100-USB from NEXT Biometrics is a high-quality, bezel-less USB fingerprint area sensor module designed for integration into custom application products such as notebooks, tablets, USB peripherals, point-of-sale and access control terminals.

It relies on the NEXT sensor chipset mounted on a small printed circuit board for seamless hardware integration. The module connects to a USB hub or embedded USB host.

The fingerprint sensor module works with the patented NEXT Active Thermal principle. The sensor technology is tolerant against dirt, grease and varying environmental conditions. The large active area of the One Touch Access 100-USB allows stable imaging, intuitive user operation and is ideally suited for mass market applications in need of both security and convenience.

The NEXT technology enables an economical production process and makes a quality sensor available to price sensitive applications without compromising functionality or performance. NEXT Biometrics offers a turnkey biometric subsystem by providing hardware drivers and a complete biometric SDK (software development kit) based on a NEXT-certified partner algorithm for a variety of host platforms.

One Touch Access 100-USB is ready for WBF and Windows Hello. USB host drivers are available for Windows, Android and Linux.
