HOME / FAQs / FINGERPRINT SENSORS

What can impact the fingerprint authentication process?

The biometric data obtained from our fingerprints is extremely volatile and anything from varying pressure when touching the sensor, to scarred tissue on the fingerprint, can affect the fingerprint authentication process. Inconsistencies in our fingerprints, such as these, can cause ‘false negative’ responses. This is when a valid biometric sample is provided, but the system falsely rejects it.
