As we all know fingerprint readers detect body heat.
The problem is when the user/person just came out of a chiller room and have to place his finger on the reader for identification. Similar problem in cold weather.
Is there any solution to this problem?
Just FYI, our fingerprint reader/terminal is available in 4 different options ie. Optical, Thermal, Capacitive, and Electric Field (EF).

It is very critical problem which occur just because low temperature and quite normal in chiller room or during cold weather. There is a solution for this. We can use the NIST finger print image quality (NFIQ), which is “intended to be predictive of the relative performance of a minutia based finger print matching system.” This algorithm gives an integerrating o rfingerprint image quality using a 1–5 scale. A rating of 1 indicates a very good quality image, while 5 indicates very poor.
