fingerprint flowcode component?
Hi guys!, I´d like to know if there is some fingerprint flowcode component so that can be programed?.
I have Flowcode 6.
Greetings!
Hace a nice weekend

Hi ganimides2017,
There is currently no fingerprint Flowcode component.
This was requested here for Flowcode V6

Re: fingerprint flowcode component?
Hello,
I'm currently adding new v7 components for Click and Grove modules. I can add this sensor to the list if you like.
https://www.seeedstudio.com/Grove-Finge ... gJQXPD_BwE
Though it's a new development so I'm afraid it's v7 only.
The code I'm going to use to port into Flowcode is available here so you could have a go at porting into v6.

Hi Ben
That going to be interesting, the sensor looks like the one I've bought to use with the Arduino, though mine was branded Adafruit.

1 in 10 people understand binary, the other one doesn't !

Re: fingerprint flowcode component?
Does anybody know if the fingerprint sensor, mentioned above, ever were implemented in FC7? Or am I just blind and can´t find it?

Re: fingerprint flowcode component?
Hello,
No I never managed to get around to this though I can put it back on the list.
However it's potentially something you can do yourself.
I recently wrote a guide on how to create components using the CAL components as building blocks.

Hopefully this should get you started but let us know how you're getting on.

Hi Ben.
Thanks alot for the quick reply.
I´ll give it a try and post the result here later.

Re: fingerprint flowcode component?
Hi,
What fingerprint device are you thinking of?
I just recently purchased a sparkfun device and will have a crack at it shortly...maybe we can do a joint project?

Re: fingerprint flowcode component?
Hi, I wrote and posted a simple component for a fingerprint reader. see:
viewtopic.php?f=66&t=19427
This was for a fairly old scanner & by chance I posted it just before Elektor published an article about the scanners ( and the protocol for the newer model looked very similar). I think I posted the source, but any queries or help I can offer please ask. note there is no support for simulation, so it could be extended to a 'proper' component by someone if needed...

Re: fingerprint flowcode component?
This highlights a possible opportunity for Flowcode ( I'm sure has been mentioned before)
What is needed is a simple way to offer components ( for example take a look at how this is done in Clickteam Fusion 2.5), We need a centrally maintained list of components made easily accessible ( within FC itself rather than trawling the forum)
These could be free or charged for (with the author receiving a percentage of the price). This would give an incentive to write more components and would also help promote Flowcode , whilst discouraging reinvention of the wheel, making programming more productive and fun!
It would help if Matrix could open source some components and document the simulation macros.

Re: fingerprint flowcode component?
Hi all.
Thanks for all the feedback, I´ll try too describe the problem.
I have a client that currently are using an RFID tag/card passage system designed by me and it has been working prettu much ok fore a couple of years, but now the RFID tag/card doesn´t provide a high enough security level anymore, so I need to implement a fingerprint sensor combined with the RFID system, preferably something that can be coded in FC7.
For example: The RFID tag opens a door tied too the person who owns the RFID tag, but to actually use the equipment behind the door I need to be sure that it actually is the right person and not just a stolen or lost RFID tag beeing used by someonelse.
As a part of the problem, I need to store at least 800 fingerprints.

Re: fingerprint flowcode component?
- the version I used stored the grand total of 20 fingerprints and the newer version 200 (https://www.sparkfun.com/products/14518) (Users 1-200 press here Users 201-400 here .....)As a part of the problem, I need to store at least 800 fingerprints.
The fingerprint 'templates' can be stored remotely and re-loaded to the scanner device from a central store (but I can't think of many benefits other than 'timed' access controls?)
It might be worth investigating something like https://www.thebarcodewarehouse.co.uk/s ... gLSdfD_BwE - though I couldn't see how many fingerprints this stores (if any - it might pass the processing to the host PC)
