You can easily add a fingerprint reader to your computer if one isn't already built in.
If you have a laptop without a built-in reader, or you want to add fingerprint recognition to your desktop PC, you can enlist the aid of a third-party reader.
If your current laptop does not have an integrated fingerprint reader, you can easily add one via a USB dongle or stick.
You can also add a fingerprint sensor to your desktop computer.
Another manufacturer worth considering is Bio-Key, which makes several fingerprint readers, including the cable-connected EcoID. I use the Bio-Key EcoID with my Windows 10 desktop.
