Description of Hamster IV Fingerprint Reader

 
The SecuGen Hamster IV Fingerprint Scanner is the improved version of SecuGen's popular and versatile fingerprint reader product line, with Auto-On and Smart Capture. Packaged in a comfortable, ergonomic design, the Hamster IV Fingerprint Scanner features the industry's most rugged and advanced optical sensor using patented SEIR fingerprint biometric technology.

The SecuGen Hamster IV Fingerprint Scanner has an Auto-On feature, 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 Fingerprint Scanner will turn on and scan your finger as soon as you touch the sensor - all without having to prompt the system.

The Hamster IV Fingerprint Scanner has a Smart Capture feature that ensures quality fingerprint scanning of difficult fingers. By automatically adjusting the brightness of the Fingerprint sensor, Smart Capture allows the Hamster IV Fingerprint Scanner to capture high quality fingerprints from a greater spectrum of traditionally difficult fingers ranging from dry to moist.

SecuGen Hamster IV Fingerprint Scanner can be used for authentication, identification and verification functions that let your fingerprints act like digital passwords that cannot be lost, forgotten or stolen.

Hamster IV fingeprint scanner used in Tamil Nadu Health Insurance Scheme as part of Indian government’s eGovernance Initiative, 100 Million Fingerprints Enrolled!

The Tamil Nadu Health Insurance Scheme (TNHIS) is one of many projects that comprise the Indian government’s eGovernance Initiative. The TNHIS is intended to make health care insurance available to India’s rural poor, while the biometric component and usage of the SecuGen Hamster IV fingerprint readers are to help prevent unauthorized access at the point of authentication in the hospitals.

SecuGen fingerprint readers have been utilized in many e-governance projects across India, including health insurance and micro finance projects, which are critical for developing countries such as India. For the TNHIS project alone, SecuGen Hamster IV fingerprint readers have been used to enroll approximately 100 million fingerprints from about 15 million families in only 75 days. The fingerprint devices are used first to enroll each beneficiary into the system and then to identify them when they subsequently visit a hospital to obtain medical care.
