Overview

We recently published tutorials on how to install “Windows Biometric Framework (WBF)” and “SecuGen Legacy” drivers. Today we’re going to show you how to install Nitgen fingerprint scanner driver on your computer.

Nitgen biometric devices, Nitgen Fingkey Hamster I (Model: HFDU06), Hamster II (Model: HFDU14) and Hamster III (Model: HFDU06S), are USB fingerprint scanners manufactured by Nitgen. These devices help you capture fingerprint images and save it on your computer.

  • How to Install

Nitgen biometric devices are USB based and can get connected through a USB port of your computer. Software developers can use these devices in their application along with a fingerprint SDK (software development kit). These scanners support various third party fingerprint software applications.

In order to use these devices in your application, you need “driver” for these scanners. The scanner driver allows these devices to communicate with your computer. The driver needs to be manually installed on your computer.

Download Nitgen fingerprint scanner driver (EasyInstallation v3.12) Windows 32 bit & 64 bit from: https://www.bayometric.com/fingerprint-sensor-driver/

While you install the driver, the fingerprint image capture software also gets installed on your computer and is readily available for you to use. The fingerprint capture software allows you to store fingerprint images on your computer as BMP (bitmap image file) image files.

The following guide will show you how to install the driver and use the fingerprint capture software.
