  • Publication number: 20110163845
    Abstract: A wireless fingerprint card comprises a CPU, a fingerprint scanning device, a fingerprint identification device, a wireless communication device, an information input device and a storage device. The fingerprint identification device, the wireless communication device, the information input device and the storage device are coupled to the CPU respectively, and the fingerprint scanning device is coupled to the fingerprint identification device. The fingerprint scanning device scans fingerprint of users and transmits scanned fingerprint data to the fingerprint identification device, and the latter compares the scanned fingerprint data to fingerprint data stored in the storage device and send a matching signal to the CPU if the fingerprint data match each other. Then, the CPU sends an information input command to the information input device and transmits information input from the information input device to a transaction terminal through the wireless communication device according to the matching signal.

  • Publication number: 20100264752
    Abstract: A power supply control socket comprises a casing, socket apertures, a power supply control device including a fingerprint scanning unit, a fingerprint matching unit and a control unit connected together in series and a micro switch. The fingerprint scanning unit collects and transmits fingerprint information of users to the fingerprint matching unit. The fingerprint matching unit compares the fingerprint information to fingerprint templates pre-stored in the power supply control device. The control unit controls power supply according to comparison results. The micro switch is provided behind the socket apertures for closing a circuit when a plug is inserted to the socket apertures to enable the control of the control unit. The invention controls power supply to the socket by means of fingerprint authentication and the micro switch, which could greatly improve electrical safety. Thus, it is not necessary to worry about leakage of electricity even when children touch the socket.
