The Broadcom USH CV with Fingerprint Swipe Sensor is a biometric security device that allows users to authenticate their identity using fingerprint recognition. It is typically used for laptop or desktop security, enabling a fingerprint-based login to the operating system or specific applications, providing an additional layer of security compared to traditional password-based authentication.

The Windows driver for the Broadcom USH CV is necessary for your operating system to recognize and properly interact with the fingerprint sensor hardware. Without the correct driver, the fingerprint sensor may not function, and the device may not be able to register or recognize fingerprints.
