libfprint is a solution for Unix systems, using user-space USB drivers
to communicate with fingerprint readers.

Windows already has a driver model to deal with fingerprint readers, so
you could use that if the application doesn't need to be portable,
otherwise you will need to compile and test the libfprint library on
Windows yourself.

If that's something you're interested in, porting the build system to
Meson first (on Linux) would make it easier to generate build files to
compile it under Visual Studio on Windows.

Cheers
