Windows Hello fingerprint scanner for Windows 10/11

This USB fingerprint reader is designed exclusively for Windows Hello on Windows 10 and 11 PCs. It replaces traditional passwords with a single-touch biometric login for local Windows accounts. The device supplies fingerprint input to the operating system and does not directly authenticate websites or applications. It targets desktop users who want faster, password-free access to their Windows profile.

Match-in-Sensor security with RGB light ring

Fingerprint matching occurs inside the sensor, so biometric data stays on the device and is never uploaded or stored externally. A built-in RGB ring offers static colours, cycling, breathing, rotating, flashing, rainbow flow and full-ring effects that can be switched to match a desktop setup. The unit connects via a 20 ft cable and weighs 0.059 kg for flexible placement on a desk.

Check Windows version

The reader works only with Windows 10 and 11; it is not supported on Mac or Linux systems. Verify that your PC runs one of those Windows versions and has an available USB port for the plug-and-play connection. No separate driver installation is required, but Windows Hello must be enabled in the operating system settings.
