8. FeinTech Fingerprint sensor

The FPS00200 recognizes your fingerprint and logs you into Windows in one second. For the initial setup, your fingerprints have to be "learned". Here a smart algorithm helps, which learns by frequent repetition and accelerates the recognition. At least 5 different fingers can be learned, either all from you or from multiple people. The sensor surface enables 360° recognition. So you don't have to place your finger at a certain angle. This is really suitable for everyday use. Once you get to know the function, you won't want to do without it. The biometric login is already included in Windows 10 and is called Windows Hello. Therefore, no software installation is necessary, everything is prepared in Windows 10. The drivers are also included in Windows or can be loaded automatically via online connection if required. Over time, more software applications will become possible with Windows Hello. If the Finderprint sensor is unplugged from the computer, the conventional password entry takes effect. When it is plugged in again, the fingerprint login is immediately active again. No repeated setup is necessary. Setup instructions with video are available via the QR code on the packaging. A driver can be installed manually for Windows 7/8.
