SecuGen Hamster IV is the FBI Certified addition to
SecuGen's popular and versatile fingerprint reader product line.
Packaged in a comfortable, ergonomic design, Hamster IV features the
industry's most rugged and advanced optical sensor using patented
SEIR fingerprint biometric technology.
Auto-On is an Automatic Finger Placement Detection technology that
automatically checks for the presence of a finger. When used with
Auto-On-compatible software, the Hamster IV will turn on and scan your
finger as soon as you touch the sensor - all without having to prompt
the system.
Smart Capture ensures quality fingerprint scanning of difficult
fingers. By automatically adjusting the brightness of the sensor,
Smart Capture allows the Hamster IV to capture high
quality fingerprints from a wide range of traditionally difficult
fingers, including those from dry, wet, scarred or aged skin, and even
in bright ambient conditions such as under direct sunlight.
Use SecuGen Hamster IV together with SecuGen's MINEX Certified
Template Generator and Matcher to develop PIV-compliant applications
that require fingerprint biometrics
