My laptop has an built-in fingerprint sensor usable with Windows Hello. I was wondering if I could use this fingerprint sensor in Python.
I am using Windows 10 and Python 3.8.3 64-bit version. My laptop manufacturer is Lenovo and the model is the Lenovo Ideapad Flex 14.
My goal is to read fingerprints, save fingerprints, and compare them to stored fingerprints.
I have found a Github repo that is a python wrapper for the Windows Biometric Framework, which is only available for C and C++. The repo isn't perfect, as it didn't have a simple way to train and add or remove fingerprints. It checks if the fingerprint is registered with the current user's account. Anyway, I think that's the best for now. Link: https://github.com/luspock/FingerPrint
