Fingerprint reader in Fedora Linux?

I use Fedora linux on my Dell XPS 15 9500. Is it possible to install the fingerprint reader driver?

Yes there is, but for Ubuntu/Debian: here (the sensor is the same on 9300, 9500 and 9700 as per lsusb). I use Fedora and would like a port for it.

A quick search of many of the Linux forums suggests the answer is no - there are no drivers for this hardware, at least not as of this writing.
