How to use GT-511C3 Fingerprint Scanner In raspberry pi 2

[uzairali001]

I want to use GT-511C3 Fingerprint Scanner in Raspberry pi 2 running Windows IOT core, I saw the GT-511C3 Fingerprint Scanner library is in c++ but that is for arduino and I don't know how to use it. I want to send finger image scanned from scanner to httpclient

Sorry, bad news. Library for Arduino is definitivelly NOT what you want. GT-51x0Ex is only fingerprint scanner. It scan raw image of fingerprint. That library is probably for fingerprint reader module with implemented fingerprint processing - Arduino have no capabilities to process fingerprint image. You need find RPi library for fingerprint recognition.

it shouldn't be that hard to port since it communicates over serial. A quick search showed this library in c++ and can be ported to windows with a little modification
