Our biometrics fingerprint Immobilizer & Car Alarm system allows users to verify the identity of the driver and allow vehicle start only by a pre-authorized fingerprint. The system is the most effective and innovative vehicle security product available to consumers and businesses; it utilizes fingerprint-control (Biometric) technology. "Secure Start," the technology behind the unit, combines a highly advanced security control system, which incorporates fingerprint control, an anti-carjacking feature, voice input control, adjustable time duration parameters, and advanced auto-alarming functions. Patented technology. Certificated with the CEMARK. ROHS compliant.
The unit uses the UPEK TCS1 chip, which is certified by the FBI for "Next Generation Identification (NGI)."
The Fingerprint Starter allows you and your clients to do much more than basic alarm features.
Features:
- Uses fingerprint identification; this will encode the car security system.
- Can store up to 9 authorized fingerprints
- Prevents alarm decrypting.
- Inserting a car key or using a keyless ignition device is useless unless fingerprint recognition is initiated.
- Any unauthorized persons who gain entry to your vehicle illegally will set off the quick alarming function.
- All inputs or settings are guided by the master driver through the password controller by voice instruction.
- Anti Carjacking/Anti Hi-Jacking Feature
- Optional
- When the doors of the vehicle are opened while the engine is running, the system goes into defense mode, allowing up to 90 seconds (default time setting) for a simple swipe of an authorized fingerprint to return the system to normal mode. If a hi-jacking has occurred, there is no authorized fingerprint present to disarm the system. As the perpetrator is driving off with vehicle, the system not receiving an authorized fingerprint will shut down the vehicle’s gas flow after 90 seconds. Additionally, the quick alarm feature will trigger exterior flashing lights and the vehicles horn. The 90 seconds allows the perpetrator to get some distance from the victim. The default time setting can be extended or reduced to meet the clients needs.

Main Function Introduction:
I. Live Fingerprint Identification
This security system utilizes Biometrics Fingerprint identification technology, which encodes the starting system of the vehicle. Only authorized drivers with enrolled fingerprints can start the car engine, or enable and disable the settings of the unit. The system prevents decrypting; and is multi-functional, it can store a maximum of 9 user’s fingerprints, divided into 3 categories, the master driver has a 4 or 6 digit code that enables them to enroll or delete fingerprints, and assign user time-frames. The flexibility of this anti-theft product makes it highly useful for friends, family, or fleet management.
II. Automatic Engine Starter
Inserting a car key or using keyless ignition devices is useless without fingerprint authentication ignition will not occur. If someone attempts to start the vehicle by inserting the car key into the ignition and turning to the “ON” position they first must input the authorized fingerprint, and the vehicle will then start within 0.8 seconds.
III. Quick Alarming:
When an unauthorized person attempts to start the vehicle, it will arm immediately, and will not start without authorized fingerprint verification. Repeatedly attempting to start the vehicle without inputting the authorized fingerprint activates the “Quick Alarming” function, which prevents vehicle ignition and stops fuel supply to the engine, thus vehicle ignition is impossible.
IV. Enable and Disable the Alarm Function:
The system utilizes a password controller (4 or 6 digit PIN code) that verifies the “Master Driver” of the vehicle, which gives the master driver the ability to enable and disable the alarm functions by entering their PIN code. The valet mode feature is governed by the Deactivated Alarm Status, this allows the master driver or person the master driver has entrusted with the PIN code to lend the vehicle to a friend or have it serviced without enrolling new fingerprints. By utilizing the PIN code the Master Driver can easily enroll or delete fingerprints. The settings (functions & features) are guided by voice instruction and can be adjusted via key pad, which enables the user to fully utilize this proactive vehicle security system.
How does the anti car-jacking feature work?
If the driver door is opened while the engine is running the system must assume you have been car-jacked, and it goes into defense mode 1 second after the door is opened. Once engaged there are 3 levels of warnings. These levels are designed to do two things. If the door was opened by the legitimate owner (and there was NO car-jacking) it gives the owner time to return the system to normal mode by placing their finger on the authentication pad. Second, and more importantly, if you have in fact been car-jacked the delay timing assures that the car-jacker is at least some distance from your location before the system shuts down the vehicle. The reason? Simple, when that car shuts off, the car-jacker is probably going to be none too happy, and if you're standing right there he could get violent. (He just car-jacked you so you know he's no choirboy)
Level ONE, warning: At the end of the first timed interval an LED flashes to remind you to input an authorized fingerprint to deactivate the system.
Level TWO, warning: At the end of the second timed interval an audible beeps giving a warning to input the correct fingerprint.
Level Three, At the end of the third timed interval (If there is still no valid fingerprint input), the car engine will shut off and cannot be restarted without an authorized fingerprint.
The default open door time to trigger the function is fixed at 1 second and cannot be changed. The interval between warnings (i.e. the length of time between the system arming itself and the LED flashing / between the LED Flashing and the audible warning / and between the audible warning and engine shutdown) is set at a default time of 30 seconds for a total of 90 seconds but is adjustable. This parameter is programmable from a 10 second Minimum, to a Maximum of 100 seconds (total time of 30 seconds to 300 seconds). You can change these settings anytime you wish by plugging in your keypad and punching in your access code. The keypad is also used to activate and deactivate this feature, or even bypass the entire system (for valet parking, or having your vehicle serviced, etc).
Encryption and Decryption Explained
Most data security solutions, whether they are software or hardware based, rely on a process of encryption and decryption to secure digital data. Encryption takes your data and transforms it, making it unreadable to anyone that doesn't have a "key" to read it. The key basically tells how that information was transformed, and acts as a password for the data.
Once you have the key, you are able to undo the encryption, a process called decryption, making the data readable again. Just exactly what happens during the encryption process is extremely confusing. But if you're curious check out this interactive video that actually
SHOWS you how it works. The video uses 128 Bit encryption for the example, but the process is similar to 256 Bit http://www.cs.bc.edu/~straubin/cs381-05/blockciphers/ rijndael_ingles2004.swf
Hacking AES 256 Bit Encryption
The question now is, how safe is the encrypted data? That is determined by the size and complexity of the password that in turn determines the key size. And key size basically determines the level of security; 1 bit keys being the least secure, up to the 256 bit keys. The computational key length is directly proportional to the length of the "PASSWORD" that is set by the user. In other words: If the password is made up of a random combination of small letters, caps, numbers, and spaces, and the password is 7 digits in length, it would take a room full of computers, each running 1 million computations per second, 68 years to find the key. If the password is 8 digits long it would take 4032 years. At 9 digits it would take a whopping 252,000 years to crack the key! (by then it won't matter much anyway). But if you factor in the odds, it wouldn't take as long as that. In fact, once the halfway point is crossed, the chances increase exponentially. So instead of 252,000 years, they might crack it in as little as 126,000 years. (It still won't matter much). At the moment, this encryption method is in use by the N.S.A., Homeland Security, the U.S. Army (Actually ALL branches of the military) and a slew of others. After exhaustive testing by our Gov't, they determined it was the best way to protect whatever it is they protect, so you just KNOW it's got to be good. I hope this helped you to understand the basics of how it
The Chip Information (The UPEK Sensor is Certified by the FBI:)
While many other suppliers and manufacturers are using the much cheaper Optical Sensor, USA Supreme Technology's SecureStart utilizes the most advanced technology through the UPEK* Touchchip Principle and its Capacitive Sensor. Sensors used in our product apply what is known as "True Living Biometrics Identification Technology." This utilizes live fingerprint identification characteristics to identify a fingerprint. Some suppliers mislead consumers by incorporating "Optical identification and verification," in product names or description, where the device simply acts as an image reader, easily fooled by a simply copy of a print.
Technology of different fingerprint sensors
Optical Sensors
With optical sensors, the finger is placed on a plate and illuminated by LED light sources. Through a prism and a system of lenses, the image is projected on a CMOS image sensor. Using frame grabber techniques, the image is stored and ready for analysis.
Thermal Sensors
Thermal sensors contain an array of temperature measurement pixels which make a distinction between the temperature of the skin (the ridges) and the temperature of the air (in the valleys). One dimension of this sensor can be fairly small since a temperature scan can be obtained by sweeping the finger over the sensor.
Capacitive Sensors
Capacitive sensors use a difference between skin-sensor and air-sensor contact in terms of capacitive values. When a finger is placed on the sensor, an array of pixels measures the variation in capacity between the valleys and the ridges in the fingerprint.
Electric Field Sensors
Electric Field sensor creates an electric field from a ring around the sensing area with which an array of pixels can measure variations in the electric field, caused by the ridges and valleys in the fingerprint. According to the manufacturer the variations are detected in the conductive layer of the skin, beneath the skin surface or epidermis

TouchChip Principle of Operation
TouchChip is an active capacitive fingerprint-sensing technology. Each sensor cell (pixel) contains an active capacitive feedback circuit whose effective feedback capacitance is modulated by the presence of live skin close to the surface of the sensor.
The surface of each pixel is composed of two adjacent metal plates, which are separated from the skin and the environment by an ultra-hard protective coating. These sensor plates create a fringing capacitance between them whose field lines extend beyond the surface of the silicon. When live skin is brought in close proximity to the sensor plates, the skin interferes with field lines between the two plates and reduces the effective capacitance between them. When the skin is on the sensor surface (fingerprint ridge) the feedback capacitance is minimized. When the skin is far from the sensor surface (fingerprint valley) the feedback capacitance is maximized.
The sensor plates are connected in an active feedback circuit with an inverter (inverting amplifier) creating a charge integrator. One plate is connected to the inverter input and the other plate is connected to the inverter output. This charge integrator circuit can convert the feedback capacitance of the sensor cell to an output voltage corresponding to the distance of sensor plates from the fingerprint skin.
The sensor cell works in two phases. In the reset phase, the input and output of the inverter are shorted together through a reset switch, causing the charge integrator output to settle to the logical threshold of the inverter. During the sensing phase the reset switch is opened and a calibrated charge is input into the input plate of the sensor cell, causing the charge integrator output to change by an amount proportional to the feedback capacitance between the two sensor cells. Because the feedback capacitance of a fingerprint ridge is smaller than the feedback capacitance of a fingerprint valley, the output swing of a sensor cell under a ridge is greater than the output swing of a sensor cell underneath a fingerprint valley.
A two dimensional array of sensor cells captures the entire fingerprint image. The array is addressed in a random access mode through row and column decoders, enabling advanced functions such as windowing and sub-sampling. The output of the sensor array is passed through an analog signal-conditioning block providing the capability to adjust sensor gain and offset before the signal is converted through an on-chip A/D converter into an 8-bit digital signal for output off chip.
The TouchChip fingerprint sensor is controlled through a set of on-chip control registers, controlled through PerfectPrint fingerprint optimization technology. PerfectPrint controls the TouchChip to optimize fingerprint image sharpness, brightness and contrast, resulting in the best possible fingerprint image being quickly selected from the sensor. PerfectPrint guarantees that the TouchChip always provides the best possible fingerprint image under any operating conditions and for all types of skin quality.
