Built over popular Sagem MorphoSmart CBM fingerprint reader, SpringProxBio-RC puts together a contactless card reader / writer with biometric authentication or identification features.
SpringProxBio-RC targets TDS Recon rugged handheld computers, running Windows Mobile.
Features of the Biometric subsystem
Sagem MorphoSmart CBM
Fingerprint module, suitable for enrolment, authentication (1:1 or 1:2) and identification (1:N).
- Optical sensor : 500dpi, 8bits per pixel, surface 13mm x 20mm,
- Tunable capture quality and FAR (false acceptance rate),
- Identification mode : internal database stores 1000 templates, 1:N verification in 1 second or less,
- Authentication mode : 1:1 or 1:2 match in 0.8 second or less,
- Enrolment mode : 3 to 10 captures per finger ; the exported minutiae is less than 170B -storing 2 fingers is possible even on a small capacity memory card.
N.B. : access to MSO CBM is made through SpringProx's CPU, some functionnality are therefore limited, compared to classical operation on a PC.
Features of the Proximity subsystem
Contactless interface
- PCD compliant with ISO/IEC 14443 (1, 2, 3 and 4, both A and B types),
- T=CL protocol embedded in coupler's firmware (256-byte frames),
- Supported contactless smartcards (partial list) :
- NXP Mifare Classic & Mifare UltraLight, Desfire, ProX, SmartMX,

- NXP/Philips Semiconductors MfRC531 chipset featuring CRYPTO1 cipher unit with secure storage for Mifare keys,
- Card operating distance : 0 to 5cm (depending on the card).
Integration in TDS Recon
- CompactFlash type I interface,
- Waterproof and drop resistant ruggedized housing,
- Powered by the PocketPC itself,
- Works with PocketPC or Windows Mobile,
- Plug & Play operation (SpringProxBio-RC is seen as a standard serial communication port, no driver to install),
