Hi,
I was wondering if it is possible to spoof a fingerprint scanner, I am
particularly referring to the relatively cheap ones that you can get on
a computer mouse.
For a relatively cheap implementation of this system in order to log
onto a PC using a normal login ID and your scanned print, is there a
standard for how much data is required for each scanned print and in an
organisation of say 5,000 would the search be virtually instenteanous?
I would have thought fingerprint scanners built into computer mice
would be susceptible to dust and scratches (I'm thinking of a place
like a university where PC's have multiple users).
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Sarah Hamilton.
