has anyone ever used/worked with Zwipe, a biometric tech company from Norway? what are your experiences with regards to their solutions? specifically with biometric authentication engine that can perform full ID verification without the need for batteries or a fixed power supply?

We tested Zwipe's access credentials here: Testing Zwipe Fingerprint Card

Those cards contain a battery however. Overall performance was not good and even under ideal conditions, the cards still had trouble reading fingerprints accurately, and the cost of the cards are very steep ( At ~$50 per card, easily 10X more per card compared to non-fingerprint cards).

We have not tested the 'battery-less' version using NFC and reader power resonant transfer, but given the onboard powered version did not work well for access, I'd be skeptical.
