The last two functions marked * require approved biometric sensors. You can procure your own biometric sensors (approved by UIDAI) or our biometric sensor partner, Morpho will provide USB-based biometric sensors with their SDK for Android and Windows at a special cost of Rs. 3000 - you can purchase these online on or before May 31, 2015. Please read the FAQ to know more about it.
Access to APIs and SDKs
To participate in the Hackathon, you will need SDKs and APIs that you can use to build applications on top of Aadhaar APIs. You can find the documentation and access to those SDKs and APIs in the following Developer Guide
The SDK from Morpho will be available for download as soon as you order the sensor. You will be redirected to a link after the purchase from where you can download the SDK.
