What sort of biometric device is this? I haven’t worked with any of
those, but I have worked with bar-code scanners, and the way they work
is that they basically emulate a keyboard typing really quickly. You
click or tab into the text field that the bar-code belongs in, and pull
the trigger, and the code is inserted in the text field.
Maybe that’s a starting point for you to investigate.

Assuming that you want the device connected to the client PC (rather
than the server) then you could have a problem accessing it from the
browser.

Assuming that you want to use it within the browser, I’m afraid you have
to
create another program for that.
I’ve seen people create a Java Applet to access external devices from
the
browser. That I known it will work.
But assuming you just want to integrate biometrics data monitoring and
visualization, I believe that the best way is to create a
diferent desktop/embedded application just to communicate with the
server
and register the data.

You can use a keyboard wedge application called BioWedge with a Morpho
MSO300 scanner. This assumes you are running on Windows. The web site is
www.BioMetricSolution.com.
i have implemented biometric device to project fedena but i have used a
small app which will collect the punch-in from device and will push to
the
server. Yes you can attach biometric device for student and employee
attendance. but for students it will be bit risky because the count of
students will be more.
If possible could you please let me know how did you implement this
…?i
too want to integrate this feature into my app.

The maximum user count with the simplest solution is 20,000. There’s a
cloud version that can handle much higher user counts.

Rohini, Actually, since it is keyboard wedge you don’t have to do any
integration, that’s the best part. Install the software, plug in the usb
reader, enroll the people involved and then set it to “identification
mode”. If you want to organize a group of readers to share a common
enrollment database you set up the various clients and then point them
to a share location where the database resides. These steps need to be
done on a Windows machine. If you want send me an email and I can assist
you further. Rich
may i know what is that software to be installed…?
Thank you very much for your information…i will follow this procedure
first , and if i still get any doubts i will contact you …Thanks for
your
support and help.

it’s called biowedge. it requires a morpho scanner to work and won’t run
at all without a the morpho scanner. they sell the software and scanner
together. a couple minutes to install, fairly straightforward.

no problem.
And do you have any idea about how to integrate crystal reports in
ruby
on rails (2.3.8)
Hi honey jadala,
Actually I need implement the same using Java. If i get idea how to
collect punch-in from device, then rest i can build.
You mentioned in this forum that you have small app which will collect
the punch-in from device and will push to the server.
Could please let me know how to collect the punch-in to build that small
app?
