Fingerprint Logon
The fingerprint utility enables logon to your computer using
fingerprints. During user enrollment, fingerprint samples are
saved and associated with the user’s Windows
®
user account.
When the user attempts to log on again, the user’s fingerprint
is read and compared with the user’s enrolled fingerprints; if
the fingerprint is recognized, user logon is completed.
The Fast User Switching feature of Windows
®
XP is also
supported. If user A is logged on and the fingerprint utility
verifies the fingerprint of user B (who is already enrolled),
the utility recognizes the fingerprint and switches the users.
