A wireless fingerprint attendance system comprises at least one fingerprint scanner and a computer server. First templates of fingerprint related data are stored on the server, and similar templates are stored on the scanner. When a fingerprint is scanned, the fingerprint data is transmitted wirelessly to the server, where a comparison is made. The server directs the scanner to display an indication whether or not a match was found. If available, an updated list of templates of fingerprint related data is transmitted from the server to the scanner and is added to the first templates. If a connection is not made, the scanned data remains on the scanner, which makes the comparison using the scanner templates. At periodic intervals the scanner and server attempt to connect. At a successful connection, the scanned fingerprint data is wirelessly transmitted to the server, and the scanned fingerprint data is purged from the scanner.

An inker is usually used in electrical properties testing processes to mark the defective dies of the semiconductor wafer. However, the conventional inker having only one axis will be shaken during working time, resulting in making a mistake of marking the wrong dies. The present invention discloses a multi-axes inker to fix the problem. Another axis is added to the conventional inker. The new axis can help in restricting the original axis, so that the inker is stable and can mark the right dies without a mistake.
