Garuda (or generally Arch) support for fingerprint readers and face unlock?

Hello.
Recently I bought a laptop, that has both fingerprint reader and hybrid IR camera for face unlock. I am planning to switch to Garuda, but am not completly sure if features like that are at all supported in Linux.
Can somebody confirm or deny it?

It depends on your hardware.

Search in
https://wiki.archlinux.org/
to see if there are drivers for your notebook.
