Signature Pads with Fingerprint Capture for Verified Signing
Six DS models pair signature capture with fingerprint capture for counters that must verify identity as well as intent. The DS101S, DS1030, DS1031, DS510S and DS530S list 192 x 192 fingerprint modules, and the DS1640 lists an optional fingerprint scanner. Pressure-sensitive signing adds biometric information on every model.
Fingerprint-Capable Models
Official option wording, model by model.
DS101S
10.1-inch 1280 x 800 IPS terminal. The official data states the fingerprint scanner is optional to capture fingerprint in high resolutions; the module is specified at 192 x 192. 512 to 4096 user-defined pressure levels, USB-A.
DS1030
10.1-inch identity terminal with dual 5MP cameras and optional security-guaranteed ID card reader. The optional fingerprint scanner captures high-resolution fingerprint images at 192 x 192. The fullest verification stack in the line.
DS1031
10.1-inch terminal with 2MP facial photo camera. The optional fingerprint sensor enables high-resolution capture of fingerprints at 192 x 192. Face plus fingerprint at one counter.
DS510S
5-inch 800 x 480 IPS pad, 600 g, USB-C. The optional fingerprint sensor captures fingerprints in high resolutions at 192 x 192. Identity capture in a mobile form factor.
DS530S
5-inch 800 x 480 TFT pad, 285 g, USB-C. The official data describes a high-precision fingerprint recognition module that allows quick and accurate fingerprint collection while protecting customer privacy, specified at 192 x 192.
DS1640
15.6-inch 1920 x 1080 IPS/CTP display, HDMI. The official data states the fingerprint scanner is optional to capture fingerprints in high resolutions. Large-format signing plus verification.
Two Layers of Biometric Evidence
Fingerprint plus pressure-sensitive signature.
A signature capture device with fingerprint covers two independent biometric layers. The fingerprint module captures the print image at 192 x 192 on five models; the signature layer captures pressure variation across 2048, 4096 or 8192 levels depending on the model. The official product data describes the 5-inch models as capturing more biometric information during the signing process because pressure levels render different lines as pressure varies. Together, the print identifies the hand and the pressure trace characterizes how that hand signs.
This matters for dispute workflows. A flat signature image can be compared visually; a pressure trace adds a time-and-force dimension that is far harder to imitate. Counters in finance, government service halls and telecom-style registration points use the combination to raise the evidentiary weight of each transaction without adding a second device or a second step for the signer.
Choosing the Right Fingerprint Model
Match the module to the counter.
Fixed high-throughput counters choose the 10.1-inch band. The DS1030 is the choice where the counter also needs face capture and card reading, since it is the only model with the camera pair and the optional security-guaranteed ID card reader. The DS1031 covers face plus fingerprint at a lower option load. The DS101S covers fingerprint-only verification with 4 programmable press keys and macOS support, fitting counters that verify by print and want a simpler device.
Mobile and compact counters choose the 5-inch band. The DS510S puts the 192 x 192 sensor on the IPS panel at 600 g; the DS530S puts it on the lightest fingerprint-capable chassis at 285 g with the privacy-worded recognition module. Premium counters presenting long documents choose the DS1640, pairing the 15.6-inch 1920 x 1080 display with the optional scanner.
All six models are compared against their non-fingerprint siblings in the model index, with band detail on the 5-inch, 10.1-inch and 15.6-inch pages.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which DS models support fingerprint capture?
Six: DS101S, DS1030, DS1031, DS510S, DS530S and DS1640. Five list a 192 x 192 module; the DS1640 lists an optional fingerprint scanner.
Is the fingerprint module standard or optional?
Optional on all six models. Availability of the option is confirmed during quotation.
Does fingerprint capture replace the signature?
No. The fingerprint identifies the signer while the pressure-sensitive signature records intent with biometric pressure data. The two layers complement each other.
Which model combines fingerprint with an ID card reader?
The DS1030: optional fingerprint scanner plus an optional security-guaranteed ID card reader, alongside dual 5MP cameras.
Which is the lightest fingerprint-capable model?
The DS530S at 285 g, a 5-inch USB-C pad with the 192 x 192 high-precision fingerprint recognition module.
All specifications on this site are taken from the official product data of the corresponding Huion model. Where a model lists an optional module, availability of that option is confirmed during quotation. Certificates available upon request.
