However, it is questionable whether their sensors can be tricked with a severed finger - although we have not yet tried this ourselves due to a lack of volunteers.What the fuck, did I just read?

So a dead finger is just another finger...

wrote 18 days ago last edited by@krutonium@social.treehouse.systems it's not that easy.
some are checking the capacity change of a finger and a dead one apparently has a measurable difference to one still attached.
If the finger print scanners in question do this too is the one piece they didn't know because its "secret" and they couldn't find a volunteer... -

The trickier bit would be temperatures and other things of that nature imo.

wrote 18 days ago last edited by@krutonium@social.treehouse.systems I never took too much time in finger print reader security and its possbile loop holes.
There i probably some way, but I expect it not to be too hard on the cheaper sensors...
