This SainSmart all-in-one optical fingerprint sensor will make adding
fingerprint detection and verification super simple. These modules are typically
used in safes – there’s a high powered DSP chip that does the image rendering,
calculation, feature-finding and searching. Connect to any microcontroller or
system with TTL serial, and send packets of data to take photos, detect prints,
hash and search. You can also enroll new fingers directly – up to 162 finger
prints can be stored in the onboard FLASH memory. There’s a red LED in the lens
that lights up during a photo so you know its working.
There are basically two requirements for using the optical fingerprint sensor.
First is you’ll need to enroll fingerprints – that means assigning ID #’s to
each print so you can query them later. Once you’ve enrolled all your prints,
you can easily ‘search’ the sensor, asking it to identify which ID (if any) is
currently being photographed.
You can enroll using the windows software (easiest and neat because it shows you
the photograph of the print) or with the Arduino sketch (good for when you don’t
have a windows machine handy or for on-the-road enrolling)
