Microsoft has demonstrated a Fingerprint Card (FPC) touch sensor in combination with a beta version of Windows 8.1, an update to Windows 8.

Windows 8.1 customers will be able to sign on to their Microsoft account, make online payments and other transactions using the fingerprint sensor for user verification.

According to Dustin Ingalls, Partner Group Program Manager for Windows Security & Identity at Microsoft, cited by media outlet Business Wire, fingerprint-based biometrics sensors will be an integral part of the Windows 8.1 user experience. They will provide upgraded security.

FPC markets, develops and produces biometric components and technologies which verify a person’s identity. The technology consists of biometric sensors, processors, algorithms and modules that can be used separately or in combination with each other.
