Making the drivers work on 96x96 sensor #36

Open nibirrayy opened 3 years ago

nibirrayy commented 3 years ago

I have a square sensor but I don't know if it is the 96x96 sensor but what I can tell is that the driver doesn't detect my finger print correctly or even if it does in some rare cases it is not sufficient to authenticate.

Is there is a way to make it work?

I'm also having the same issue

iafilatov commented 3 years ago

If the scanner is recognized but enrolling and/or recognizing doesn't work well, then likely nothing can be done https://github.com/iafilatov/libfprint#common-problems

nibirrayy commented 3 years ago

is there any other algorithm that we can use or can we create an image from another sensor and put it to use?

I just want the sensor to work like it does on windows

None that I know of that's available and fits libfprint's license. You can follow the development in the main repo at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libfprint/libfprint. It's quite lively and this problem is known. On windows a proprietary driver with a proprietary algo is used (actually, I think the algo is not even a part of the driver at all).

Is there any proprietary algo available that I can myself compile with libfprint?

Again, none that I'm aware of.

devmrfitz commented 3 years ago

Any updates on this issue?

nibirrayy commented 3 years ago

@devmrfitz no update so far just stop using the sensor and didn't try anything new
