Every newborn has their footprints collected at the hospital shortly after birth. This footprint is the baby's very first "identity credential" in life — but doing it right is far more difficult than most people realize.
A newborn's fingerprints are extremely shallow and fine, making traditional ink-based methods prone to producing blurry, unclear impressions. Babies naturally keep their fists clenched, and forcing their fingers open to press into ink pads is both difficult and potentially harmful. More critically, paper-based footprint records are difficult to digitize and archive — they fade and get lost over time, becoming useless when they're needed most.
The Chipsailing FAP60 Multi-Finger Fingerprint Scanner was built precisely to solve these pain points.
Gentle Touch Collection — No Harm to the Baby
The FAP60 uses Chipsailing's proprietary glass-based sensing technology. No forceful pressing is required — a gentle touch is all it takes to complete the capture. For a newborn with delicate, tender skin, the entire process is mild and painless, causing no discomfort whatsoever.
500 DPI Ultra-High-Resolution Imaging — Even Sweat Pores Are Visible
The FAP60 features a 1600×1500 pixel array with a resolution of 500 DPI, compliant with the FBI FAP60 international standard. Even the faintest, finest footprint ridges of a newborn can be captured in exquisite detail, ensuring that archived data is clear and usable.
Family of Three Registered Simultaneously — Reunification in Seconds if Ever Lost
The FAP60 supports simultaneous multi-finger capture. While collecting the baby's footprints, it can simultaneously record both parents' fingerprints. The biometric data of all three family members is bound together into a "Family Identity Archive," stored in the system, and accompanies the child for life. Should identity verification ever be needed in the future, there's no need to visit the hospital or wait for DNA results — a single fingerprint scan on-site allows the system to complete the comparison in seconds. Whether someone is family or not can be confirmed with one touch.
Infrared Liveness Detection — Fraud Prevention at the Source
The FAP60 is equipped with infrared liveness detection technology, which determines authenticity by detecting subcutaneous blood signals. Silicone molds and gel-based fake fingerprints carry no biological signal, and the device rejects them on the spot — effectively eliminating the possibility of identity fraud at the hardware level.
Works on Both Dry and Wet Skin — Recognition Rate Exceeds 95%
Whether the baby's feet have traces of amniotic fluid or vernix, or the parents' fingers are wet or dry, the FAP60 delivers stable, reliable capture. The glass-based material produces clean signals with a high signal-to-noise ratio, achieving recognition rates above 95% for dry fingers, wet fingers, and shallow fingerprints alike.
A single small footprint is a child's first digital identity credential in life — and an invisible "safety lock." Chipsailing FAP60: protection from the very first breath.
