Market Revenue Fingerprint Reader Industry Analysis of Sales | Page 2
Moreover, the developing application areas for fingerprint sensors such as Internet of Things (IoT)
and the increasing adoption of fingerprint sensors in the banking & finance industry, including smart
cards, are expected to lift the market growth in the years to come. On the other hand, the lack of
awareness among customers regarding the higher security offered by fingerprint sensors is one of the
major restraining factor for the growth of this market.
Fingerprint Reader Market is classified, by type into optical readers, Capacitive or CMOS Readers,
Ultrasound Fingerprint Readers, Thermal Readers. Optical Readers - take a visual image of the
fingerprint using a digital camera. These fingerprint readers come at cheap prices. Optical readers are
more easy to fool than other fingerprint readers and more quickly yield false negatives in less than
ideal conditions.
Capacitive or CMOS readers use capacitors and thus electrical current to form an image of the
fingerprint, this image is based on the actual shape of the fingerprint. Therefore, CMOS readers are
more difficult to fool than optical readers. Ultrasound fingerprint readers use high frequency sound
waves to penetrate the epidermal (outer) layer of the skin. They do not read the fingerprint on the
outer layer of the skin and therefore eradicate false rejects due to scars or uncleaned hands. These
fingerprint readers are supposed to be very difficult to fool, which makes them very popular even if
the price is significantly higher than for a CMOS reader.

Thermal readers sense the temperature differences on the contact surface, in between fingerprint
ridges and valleys. The fact that thermal fingerprint readers have a number of disadvantages makes
them far less popular than the previous types. These fingerprint readers have high power
consumption, which makes them difficult to use in mobile applications, and their performance is very
dependent on the environment temperature.
Fingerprint Reader Market is classified, by product type into USB Type Fingerprint Reader, Integration
Fingerprint Reader. USB Type Fingerprint Readers are powered by complementary metal-oxide-
semiconductor (CMOS) sensor technology and are one of the best optical systems amongst its
aristocracies. Fingerprint Reader Market is classified, by application into Company Attendance,
Mobile Devices/Consumer Application, Travel & Immigration, Government and Law Enforcement,
