Review: It's Working (Adafruit fingerprint library works) - Comes with a ton of documentation including Arduino, CPP, and RPi files (which you can all see before purchase through the link on this page). The Arduino files seem very similar to the Adafruit fingerprint library. I had a few issues (since I'm somewhat new to these things) with the included library, but the Adafruit one works perfectly, so I won't drop ratings for that. I honestly am not entirely sure what the Blue and Yellow wires are for. I believe it's some On/Off control of the actual sensor, but leaving them unplugged works fine with the Adafruit library. No complaints here. The 360 directional orientation of fingerprints seems to work well, I have a finger that I've tested from many different directions and they work.
Review: It might not work. - Item was dead on arrival. 2 hours of troubleshooting and trying to fix it, to no avail. Look for a unit with better QC or order a few of these in case you get a dead one like I did.

## Features

- It can work with any microcontroller which with serial port: such as Ar duino,51,avr,stm32,pic,arm,msp430. Pls note: the connection for the fingerprint sensor with 2560 and R3 is different, pls follow the connection diagram shows in the product images.
- Functions: fingerprint collection, fingerprint registration, fingerprint comparison and fingerprint search;Applications: Fingerprint door locks, Access control systems, management software, fingerprint payment etc.
- What you will get is: 1 X Fingerprint Reader Sensor Module with 1pc plug cable. If any question, pls contact us by email.You can find " Sold by DIYmall" under Buy Now button, click "DIYmall" and you will get to a new page, click "Ask a question".
