# Goodix Fingerprint Sensor
## Introduction
The plugin used for update firmware for fingerprint sensors from Goodix.
## Firmware Format
The daemon will decompress the cabinet archive and extract a firmware blob in
a packed binary file format.
This plugin supports the following protocol ID:
* com.goodix.goodixmoc
## GUID Generation
These devices use the standard USB DeviceInstanceId values, e.g.
* `USB\VID_27C6&PID_6001&REV_0001`
* `USB\VID_27C6&PID_6001`
* `USB\VID_27C6`
## Update Behavior
The firmware is deployed when the device is in normal runtime mode, and the
device will reset when the new firmware has been written.
## Vendor ID Security
The vendor ID is set from the USB vendor, in this instance set to `USB:0x27C6`
## External Interface Access
This plugin requires read/write access to `/dev/bus/usb`.
