Quick Start Guide
Why Choose This Biometric Reader
-
The optical glass provides superior resistance to electrostatic discharge and physical impact compared to semiconductor sensors.
-
Integration is seamless because the hardware supports Windows, Linux, and Android platforms through comprehensive SecuGen SDKs.
-
Low power consumption allows the unit to operate efficiently when connected to mobile devices or laptops via USB bus power.
-
The FAP 20 large sensing area increases the biometric data points captured, which significantly reduces False Rejection Rates (FRR).
-
Furthermore, the compact form factor allows for easy deployment in point-of-sale stations or integrated kiosk environments.
