Videx Security has introduced the BIOC-SW external swipe fingerprint reader as a new addition to the ‘Mini Metal’ family of access control readers which already includes a fingerprint reader for internal use, proximity reader, keypad and touch to exit device. Using capacitive swipe biometric fingerprint technology, a user simply swipes their finger down the BIOC-SW reader and this verifies if the fingerprint is a match. It outputs the information to the access controller to decide if access should be granted or denied.
Designed for external use, it has a capacity for up to 9500 fingerprints with typical identification taking less than one second. Both visual and audible indication of acceptance or denial of access is included in the form of an internal beeper and halo style tri-colour illumination.
