In-screen fingerprinting technology can identify fingerprints anywhere on the display
At present, industry fingerprint reader manufacturers are trying to transfer from the capacitive sensor to other technologies, one of which is the screen sensor technology, also known as the screen fingerprint recognition. FPC from the end of 2016 to carry out in-screen fingerprint sensor, according to its all Technology development projects include a number of challenges, such as cost-effective mass production and fair price levels, but the most important is the opportunity.Through the application of FPC developed a unique ultrasonic technology, fingerprint recognition will become more convenient for end users. FPC's technology will allow users to capture fingerprints anywhere on the smartphone display panel, eliminating the need for mobile phone manufacturers to design physical space on mobile phones, which contrasts with existing screen fingerprinting technologies. The capture aspect can only be done in a specific area of the display panel.
FPC introduces the benefits of its new technologies to include: • A clean front design that supports smartphones (or any other device) that can be used for display and also includes fingerprint recognition to optimize the ratio of screens to mobile phones • Full screen available In the fingerprint recognition. No need to visually or physically highlight the specific area of the smartphone as a fingerprint recognition; • The technology can capture fingerprints on different surface materials, such as running in thick glass and metal. When the fingers are wet or fingers are submerged in water The technology works at all the different glass thicknesses, even the thickest glass on the market; • This unique technology works equally well in LCD panels and OLED panels
'It's a real destructive innovation that allows fingerprint recognition to be done on a number of different surfaces in new ways.' At the press conference, FPC CEO Christian Fredrikson pointed out that 'I have seen many potential applications, but we initially The focus is of course in the application of high-end smart phones. 'At present the technology has been successfully prototype production, is currently a few patent applications.It will serve as the smart phone value chain, FPC and existing partners and new partners To develop a new generation of fingerprint identification products based on the technology will also be with such as capacitive sensors and iris scanning and other existing technologies coexist, complementary.
Other market technology updates
FPC's current product line is mainly a fingerprint sensor. With the increasing use of biometric solutions, FPC also strives to develop different biometrics technologies to expand product lines and applications in different market areas such as smart cards, PCs, And the Internet of Things (IoT), with a total revenue of DK 6,638 M, gross margin of 39% and strong growth momentum in 2016. At the press conference, FPC also updated the latest developments in other core businesses.
Capacitive sensor FPC in the highly competitive capacitive sensor market, is still in the market leadership
Fingerprint sensing is a standard method for biometrics and certification in the smartphone market of about 1.6 billion units (2016.) At present, about 60% of all smartphones are equipped with fingerprint sensors, and the number is steadily increasing FPC is the market leader in the field, and its capacitive sensors have established global standards in terms of functionality, safety, convenience and quality, and today sensors can be installed on the front, back or side of a smartphone and can be adapted to different Of surface materials such as paint, ceramic or glass.
Pay - smart card FPC smart card products attract customers a considerable interest
In the card-paying market, the destruction of digital security technology is affecting the industry as a whole, and FPC has demonstrated its leading position in the biometrics industry and has a strong market impact in biometrics and certification. The smart card market is now in demand for low-cost, high-volume Production of the next stage, as the only market with a large number of sensor production experience of the manufacturers, the company has great advantages.
Recently, FPC has introduced the T-Shape (T-Shape), a single module solution designed for grinding and mass production. The benefits of T-modules include excellent images that are kept under ultra-low power consumption Quality and best biometric performance.
No contact type - iris recognition (iris)FPC is a leading supplier of iris recognition and an excellent advocate for multiple bios Certification solutions.
With the increasing use of biometric solutions, FPC is expanding its product portfolio through different biometrics technologies or models.Currently, FPC is the only multi-biometric authentication solution provider that combines fingerprints with iris Industry-leading security framework.
The company continues to explore new markets that can use biometric authentication solutions such as smart cards, personal computers, cars, and IoT. After acquiring DeltaID, FPC is able to expand customer footprints and markets.
FPC is now the first double biometric certification model after its acquisition of DeltaID, its contactless biometrics program, ActiveIRIS® and touch sensor FPC1145, both of which are supported by Japanese smartphone manufacturers in their new smartphones. "Ted Hansson, senior vice president of FPC Mobile, said," This release is based on our strong software, deepening and expanding customer base and product mix, "said Ted Hansson, senior vice president of FPC Mobile. As shown in the past, fingerprints and iris recognition are complementary patterns from the standpoint of usability, and this release is fully consistent with FPC 's leadership and ambition in the biometric multi - certification model market.
