The UPEK Advantage
- Convenient – UPEK USB fingerprint readers authenticate users with one quick swipe or touch of a finger.
- Accurate – UPEK USB fingerprint readers use patented silicon-based active capacitive sensors for reliable biometric authentication:
- Secure – protect access to only enrolled users
- Tamper resistant – mitigate fraudulent use
- Robust – UPEK's protective sensor coatings offer high ESD tolerance and proven durability for millions of user swipes or touches.
- Ease of Integration – UPEK offers a choice of Software Development Kits (SDKs) that work with Eikon and TouchChip USB fingerprint readers. Independent software vendors, system integrators and other developers can easily integrate these USB readers into their applications.
