About Fingerprint Recognition
What is a fingerprint?
Fingerprints are individual’s own biometric information and do not change throughout one’s life. Fingerprint
recognition is a technology that verifies or identifies an individual using such fingerprint information. Free from
the risk of theft or loss, fingerprint recognition technology is being widely used in security systems replacing
PIN or cards.
What is fingerprint recognition?
Fingerprints consist of ridges and valleys. Ridge is a flow of protruding skin in a fingerprint while valley is the
hollow between two ridges. Each individual has unique patterns of ridges and valleys; fingerprint recognition
makes use of these differences to differentiate between individuals.
thermal. Fingerprint template is a collection of numeric data representing the features of a fingerprint.
Fingerprint templates are saved inside the memory of BioEntry W, and used for identification.
Suprema’s Personal Information Protection Technology
To avoid privacy concern, Suprema’s fingerprint products do not save fingerprint images itself. It is impossible
to reconstruct a fingerprint image from a fingerprint template which is just numeric data of the features of a
fingerprint.

How to Enroll a Fingerprint on the Device
Suprema's fingerprint products have outstanding recognition performance regardless of the user's fingerprint
condition or positioning. However pay careful attention to the following instructions to maximize the performance
of the device.
Fingerprint Enrollment
It is recommended to enroll the index or middle finger.
The thumb, ring or little finger are generally more difficult to position properly.
Fully cover or provide maximum contact to the surface of the sensor with the desired finger. People tend to
place the tip of a finger on the sensor; this will only provide a small area of the finger to be captured and will
result in poor performance.
Place the core of the fingerprint near the center of the sensor. This will ensure a good template will be
created. The core of a fingerprint is a center where the spiral of ridges is most dense.
