Reliable and consistent performance for an ever-increasing number of applications designed for mobile, desktop, network, enterprise, and Internet environments

The Highest Quality in Fingerprint Biometrics at Affordable Prices

Accurate

SecuGen sensors are very accurate thanks to a patented optic design that produces high quality images for greater precision, fewer false rejections and false acceptances, and better overall performance compared to competing fingerprint sensors.

Durable

With a virtually indestructible sensor prism, the SecuGen sensor is extremely rugged. SecuGen sensors are designed to be strong and dependable for consistent scanning all the time, whether outdoors, under harsh conditions, or in high traffic environments.

Maintenance-Free

Unlike semiconductor-based sensors and other optical sensors, SecuGen sensors are made with hardened glass that needs no coatings or special protection. SecuGen sensors resist scratches, ESD, corrosion, and other stresses and can be easily wiped clean without fear of damage.

Cost-effective

SecuGen designs, develops, and manufactures its own fingerprint sensors that are built to last and deliver solid performance for years, making SecuGen sensors the most cost effective choice.

Typical Applications

Mobile, PC, or network security
Bank and financial systems
Medical information systems
Labor and attendance tracking
Any password-based application

What’s Inside a Hamster Pro 30?

At the heart of the Hamster Pro 30 reader is SecuGen’s compact U30 fingerprint sensor with advanced features including:

Auto-On™ automatically detects the presence of a finger when placed on the reader for quick and easy authentication

Smart Capture™ captures high quality fingerprints from dry, moist, aged, scarred and difficult-to-scan fingers for greater accuracy and reliability

High durability and ruggedness with proven resistance to electrostatic shock, impact, drops, scratches, extreme temperatures, humidity, and contaminants such as sweat, dirt, and oil

Patented optical technologies for clear, accurate imaging with high contrast, high signal-to-noise ratio and low distortion

Reliable performance even under challenging conditions and tough environments

Rejection of false fingerprints such as latent prints and 2-D images

Fingerprint data protection with templates that cannot be used to reconstruct fingerprint images

Greater sensor-to-sensor consistency for high accuracy when matching fingerprints enrolled with different fingerprint readers at different locations
