R307 Optical Fingerprint Reader Sensor Module Good Quality

About R307 Optical Fingerprint Reader 

This is the R307 Optical Fingerprint Reader Sensor Module. it can be used with a TTL UART interface for direct connections to microcontroller UART or to PC through MAX232 / USB-Serial adapter. The user can store the fingerprint data in the module and can configure it in 1:1 or 1: N mode for identifying the person.

The Finger Print module can directly interface with a 3.3 or 5v Microcontroller. A level converter (like MAX232) is required for interfacing with the PC serial port. Integrated image collecting and algorithm chip together, the All-in-One Fingerprint reader can conduct secondary development and can be embedded into a variety of end products.

Users can conduct secondary development, which can be embedded into a variety of end products, such as access control, attendance, safety deposit box, and car door locks. Low power consumption, low cost, small size, excellent performance, Professional optical technology, precise module manufacturing technics. Good image processing capabilities can successfully capture an image up to a resolution 500 dpi Finger detection function.

This module consists of an optical sensor, high-speed DSP processor, high-performance fingerprint alignment algorithm, high-capacity FLASH chips, and other hardware and software composition, stable performance, simple structure, fingerprint entry, matching, image processing, search and template storage, and other functions

This module has two interfaces TTL UART and USB2.0, USB2.0 interface can be connected to the computer; the RS232 interface is a TTL level, and the default baud rate is 57600, can be changed, refer to a communication protocol; can And microcontrollers, such as ARM, DSP and other serial devices with a connection, 3.3V 5V microcontroller can be connected directly. Needs to connect the computer level conversion, level conversion note, and embodiments such as a MAX232 circuit.

An optical fingerprint scanner works based on the principle of Total Internal Reflection (TIR). In such a scanner, a glass prism is used to facilitate TIR. Light from an LED (usually blue color) is allowed to enter through one face of the prism at a certain angle for the TIR to occur.

The reflected light exits the prism through the other face where a lens and an image sensor (essentially a camera) are placed. When there is no finger on the prism, the light will be completely reflected off from the surface, producing a plain image in the image sensor. When TIR occurs, a small amount of light is leaked to the external medium and it is called the Evanescent Wave. Materials with different refractive indexes (RI) interact with the evanescent wave differently. When we touch a glass surface, only the ridges make good contact with it. The valleys remain separated from the surface by air packets. Our skin and air have different RIs and thus affect the evanescent field differently. This effect is called Frustrated Total Internal Reflection (FTIR). This effect alters the intensities of the internally reflected light and is detected by the image sensor (see this image). The image sensor data is processed to produce a high-contrast image which will be the digital version of the fingerprint.

In capacitive sensors, which are more accurate and less bulky, there is no light involved. Instead, an array of capacitive sensors are arranged on the surface of the sensor and allowed to come in contact with the finger. The ridges and air packets affect the capacitive sensors differently.

The data from the sensor array can be used to generate a digital image of the fingerprint.
