Product Features

Ultra-Slim FAP30-Compliant Optical Sensor

BioMini Slim 3 is the world’s thinnest fingerprint scanner in its class. Despite its compact design, it features a platen size of 21.5 x 26.5 mm—larger than the FBI’s FAP30 standard of 20.32 x 25.4 mm—ensuring superior image acquisition.

FBI PIV and FAP30 Certified

Certified by the FBI for PIV (FIPS 201) and Mobile ID FAP30 compliance, the device guarantees image quality and interoperability with government and civil ID systems worldwide.

Multi Dynamic Range (MDR) Technology

Suprema’s proprietary MDR technology ensures accurate fingerprint acquisition in extreme lighting conditions. It captures clear fingerprint images even under 100,000 lux—equivalent to direct sunlight—surpassing traditional HDR methods.

Advanced Live Finger Detection (LFD)

The BioMini Slim 3 includes hardware-based LFD to effectively distinguish between live fingers and spoof attempts using fake fingerprints made of materials such as silicon or rubber.

IP65-Rated Sensor Surface

The scanner’s optical sensor surface is dust- and waterproof (IP65-rated), making it suitable for indoor or semi-outdoor use in rugged environments such as mobile verification stations and field offices.

Optimized for Integration and Development

With broad SDK support and compatibility with major operating systems including Windows, Linux, and Android, BioMini Slim 3 simplifies biometric system integration for developers and system integrators.
