Veridicom's robust FPS200 solid-state, 500 dpi fingerprint sensor is an ideal direct-contact fingerprint acquisition device. Designed for embedded devices, this high-performance, low-power, low-cost capacitive sensor is easy to integrate into Internet appliances such as laptops, personal digital assistants (PDAs), and mobile phones.This means you, your customers, and your employees can now forget your passwords-all of them-and replace them with fast, reliable, user-friendly, fingerprint authentication. Just have your users touch the FPS200 sensor with their fingertip.

The sensor's ImageSeek(tm) function takes several images of a finger and selects the best image in a fraction of a second while changing the capacitive array bias levels.

It also provides you with high quality fingerprint images from all types of skin-dry to moist-in a wide range of climactic conditions, even hot and humid.This widens the application range of the sensor while dramatically reducing the false acceptance rate (FAR) and false rejection rate (FRR). The FPS200 incorporates three modes of communication: universal serial bus (USB), micro-controller unit (MCU), and serial peripheral interface (SPI).This makes the sensor easy to integrate into different types of devices without requiring external interface devices.
