Greetings,
I recently purchased a DigitalPersona U.are.U 4500 fingerprint scanner and would like to integrate it into labview for various purposes. Using the free SDK that DP provides I was able to quickly create some test code (attached here) but thus far I am unable to get it to work. Specifically I am using their ActiveX external code but I am not necessarily tied into that as they also provide .NET and few others in their SDK for interop.
Can anyone shed some light on what I am doing wrong? I am guessing it has something to do with the event handler.
Just some background:
Fingerprint scanner
SDK download
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Before you begin, please make sure you have set up Windows Hello on your device and set up the Fingerprint recognition properly. For more information on how to do this, please refer to Windows Hello (biometrics): Sign in with Fingerprint scanner.
@nrp Could you share the instructions for installing the Goodix driver(s) mentioned in your other blog post? Running Ubuntu 21.04 and looking to start using the fingerprint reader before the commits make it to the core OS.
If someone wants to see Ubuntu to support the fingerprint feature for Framework laptop on a future released version, you need to ask a Debian libfprint package maintainer to upgrade to the latest libfprint version. Because Debian is the upstream distro of Ubuntu. Maybe you can find a way to open the ticket somewhere in the Debian libfprint package tracker page. And same for other distros too!
Has anyone gotten the fingerprint sensor working in arch yet? I have libfprint installed at the latest compatible version but gnome 40 still does not recognize the fingerprint. I would love to get this figured out and added to the arch linux thread.
Incredibly small and incredibly accurate, our Kojak 10-print roll scanner features an intuitive ergonomic design, weighs less than 725 grams (1.6 pounds), and scans four flat prints and single finger rolls. Kojak is impervious to latent prints and functions with both dry and dirty fingers, without the need to apply hand lotion. As with our other industry-leading scanners, Kojak performs in direct sunlight with an easy-to-read LED graphic user interface.
I can't find fingerprint sensors settings in Ubuntu 22.04 installed on my notebook (XPS 13 Dell). I've tried "settings > Users", but there is no fingerprint option there. Do I have to install separately or it is provided by Ubuntu 22.04?
I'm also running the same setup and had the same issue but the fix is pretty straightforward. First of all makes sure that the OS recognises that the fingerprint sensor exists. You can do this by running
If you get any dependency errors just apt install the relevant dependency and try again. After you install everything you should be able to see a fingerprint option appear in the Users settings. According to the original source there is a reboot necessary.
Important: Please ensure your Windows computer is up to date with Windows Updates, as new device drivers may be blocked if you are not current or awaiting a reboot to complete an install. See Windows Settings and Updates for status.
Note: Some domain-joined computers may limit the ability to use PINs or Biometrics as a domain security policy. Speak with your system administrator on opening those permissions to allow the use of the fingerprint reader.
I think there are ways of making /usr mutable for development purposes, but that should not be the solution (if possible).
My question is, how I can get support for the fingerprint sensor in Silverblue and can this be made easier for non technical users (maybe installing a single rpm-nonfree driver and call it a day?)
There is indeed, by setting your ostree to livefs. This will work for that one time, then next install it will be overwritten by the new commit. As was suggested, packaging it into an rpm locally can be used to layer it onto the base commit like any other package. It will be there through updates but will not be updated automatically, so you would have to repeat the rpm build process in order to apply any updates to the device support. Did lsusb not see the scanner?
Does anyone know the name of a software program that will let me use my fingerprint as a password? I recently had to replace the hard drive in my Dell Latitude E5520, and I don't have the drivers and software disks that came with it. I have visited Dell support page and also ran Slim Drivers, but nothing gave me the software I need to actually log in my fingerprint. It has Windows 7 Pro 64-bit, Service pack 1, 4GB RAM, an Intel Core i5-2520M CPU @ 2.50GHz.
I found the self extractor on Dell's website for the bio-metric coprocessor driver to display the error "corrupt". I used 7zip to manually extract the files and then installed the driver using the Device Manager.

Microsoft has introduced new requirements on biometric sensors to comply with Windows Hello quality guidelines. A new manual review process will be necessary to gain approval to interoperate with Windows Hello. The process will be enforced with an OS check for a specific signature obtained through the Windows DevCenter (here: ) that can only be obtained by undergoing the process in this document. Drivers that have been created and signed by WHQL before 6/1/17 are grandfathered. New and updated drivers that do not obtain this signature after this date will not work with Windows Hello in Window 10, version 1703 or later after the enforcement date.
A driver will always undergo manual approval to obtain the Windows Hello signature. Updates to approved drivers can refer to previous submissions for faster approval. Drivers must undergo a new review if it applies to a new sensor, or if changes to the matching engine have occurred that impact FAR, FRR, or presentation attack detection.
Biometric driver packages will need to be submitted to the new DevCenter portal to obtain the required Windows Hello signature and be uploaded to WU. Packages will need to include specific properties in the driver INF file to properly specify the adaptor dll's obtaining the digital signature. The following example demonstrates the formatting to obtain the bio signature on adaptor binaries and their related libraries.
For example, if the driver package contained a sensor, engine, and storage adaptor named sensor.dll, engine.dll, and storage.dll respectively, and one loaded stringparser.dll, then to obtain the bio signature on each one, the INF file would have to include the following components:
This step is the most important to making sure your driver receives the proper certification. All third party biometric adaptor files and any third party dlls loaded by these adaptors will need to be labeled and included in this manner if they are to obtain the biometric signature when submitted to DevCenter.
Microsoft will approve the submission provided it meets all Biometric requirementsObtaining the biometric signature is not certification that the driver will work with Windows Hello. For example, a file could be excluded in the inf configuration file that is checked for the signature. If this file is loaded at the time the OS enforces the signature, the load will fail and the driver will not operate with Windows Hello. The signed driver should be tested by the IHV and OEM to ensure it works in the collective system.
If an update to a previously signed driver needs to be made, follow the instructions under step 3 for filling in the bugId and updateExistingSubmission fields in the driver configuration xml for the updated driver.If an update is being made to a grandfathered driver, the same steps should be used. The bugId field should be set to the submission ID of the grandfathered driver and the updateExistingSubmission field should be set to true.The driver configuration xml should be included in the driver package that is submitted.
The Cross Match Guardian USB and FW are part of optical fingerprint scanners family intended for fast capture of all 10 fingerprints.The scanners are certified by FBI for both civil ID flats and full criminal ten-print flats.Scanners image quality complies with FBI's IAFIS Appendix F specification.
Scanner's manufacturer specifies that scanner's case is rugged to provide high tolerance for shock and vibration.The platen is heatened to eliminate condensation and halo effect.The scanner includes easy to understand pictograms, fully automatic image capture and instant quality check feedback to the user using LEDs.
Support modules for these scanners are included inMegaMatcher 13.0 SDK,MegaMatcher On Card 13.0 SDK,VeriFinger 13.0 SDK andFree Fingerprint Verification SDK.Note that FFV SDK will allow to capture only single fingerprints using the scanner, as it does not include fingerprint segmentation components.
For Windows 7 only: Install this after installing the WBF driver. The FMA is used to enroll and manage fingerprints within Windows Biometric Framework applications on Windows 7 only. (FMA is not needed for later versions of Windows because the enroll and manage functions are natively included in those versions of Windows.)
*In Windows 10, the Windows Biometric Framework (WBF) provides support for fingerprint biometric devices through a new set of components. Only use the WBF drivers if your software uses the WBF interface or you want to use the built in biometric logon in Windows 10. Please check with your software vendor for further information.
