Question

Is there any possible way to connect fingerprint biometric device to the website..?

I have created a web-based ERP system. As per the client requirement, I need to integrate fingerprint logging system. My website was developed with C# and angular2.

I have tried many sdks but nothing works as I expected.

Answer 1

Fingerprint scanners with Web API for interacting from the web page is not provided by the manufacturers. There are some 3rd party vendors providing the APIs for the same under payable license. You may check their websites to find out if they are suitable for you. Few i could remember are CamsUnit, NeuroTechnology, Jmutech.

Answer 2

The only way it could have worked is with a PWA, but according to this blog :

PWAs have limited capabilities when it comes to offering integration with a smartphone or tablet’s hardware features such as NFC and Bluetooth functionality as well as the device’s sensor package (accelerometer, fingerprint sensor, etc.). This prevents PWAs from being developed for use with mobile accessories and “wearables” like smart watches, fitness trackers and wireless earphones.

Maybe you should turn your look to Ionic and Cordova, which can access hardware.
