Huawei has issued a new patent for the development of fingerprint identification technology. Information on a new patent called Fingerprint Identification Method and Its Electronic Equipment and Media has recently been published. News ET Telecom.
According to the patent information, capacitive sensors may be used along with the sensors for fingerprint detection. Where the virtual image of the finger is used in the conventional way. In the new technology, the information about the hand of the finger can also be known.
Two types of data will be used in combination to develop terminal fingerprint identification. However, the patented advanced technology does not mention any issue of increasing security or faster scanning, but the company is giving priority to the ideas of both the technicians and those concerned.
Huawei's new patent application states that new technology for fingerprint recognition may be used in the field of smart terminals. Although the issue is not completely clear, the idea is that smartphones will benefit from this technology. Especially on smartphones that use under-display fingerprint sensors.
At present, the patent seems to be limited to paper, but the technologists hope that Huawei has already started working on this technology. The application was filed in June 2020, according to the patent documents. One year has passed since then.
The optical fingerprint sensor has sensor hardware underneath the smartphone's display. It works by reflecting the image of the user's finger. Although the technology is less expensive than conventional Superior Ultrasonic fingerprint sensors, it is weaker in terms of capabilities.
