The Nitgen RS232 serial fingerprint scanner is a powerful ADSP-BF531 Blackfin based system. This scanner is capable of gathering and storing unique finger prints. Simply hold your finger on the optical scanner, query the device over serial, and you will be issued a unique ID. Use that ID within your embedded system to determine access levels, time clocks, door locks, etc.

Unit includes master controller board, optical reader, and ribbon cable to connect read to controller. Sparkfun is trying to get pigtail interface cables made but in the interim, you will need to create your own connection to the serial connector.

Features:

  • Serial at 9600bps
  • 3.3V@200mA
  • Capture in 0.2s
  • Verification in 1.0s
