Finger-print reader: No devices found
I recently installed ubuntu 16.04 in my asus vivobook flip 14 tp410uar notebook which has an built-in finger-print reader. According to this Q/A I installed fingerprint-gui. But after launching the software it says
No Devices Found!
What to do now? I have tried other ways like installing fprint-demo. which also says the same thing. How can I detect my finger-print sensor?

Not all fingerprint sensors are supported by linux. You can check what specific sensor you have by looking intolsusboutput and try to search if some solution exist.
