Most of the high-end smartphones on the market today are equipped with fingerprint recognition, some on the Home button at the bottom of the front screen, and some are designed on the back of the fuselage. However, according to the latest trends, this situation will soon change subversively.
According to a recent report from Investor, a company from South Korea called CrucialTec will introduce a module solution based on screen fingerprint unlocking, and this module that only needs to put a finger on the screen to complete fingerprint recognition will be This year it was officially used on smartphones.
This means that we are likely to usher in the first smartphone with embedded screen fingerprint unlocking in 2017, but CrucialTec does not currently disclose the exact schedule and which smartphone manufacturer is currently in contact.
It is reported that this new technology of CrucialTec is called Display Fingerprint SoluTIon, which has received quite good evaluation, especially for many tested vendors. The module can be embedded underneath the screen of the smartphone and can detect high-precision finger contact, including the weight of the hair. And this technology can extract up to 500 pixels per inch.
At the same time, this technology is more secure than existing fingerprint recognition because it can identify multiple different fingers at the same time, and this is just the beginning. CrucialTec said it is currently developing an upgraded version of this program, which is expected to be available next year. The upgraded version of this technology will allow us to complete fingerprint recognition in any area of ​​the screen, rather than the current only in the designated area.
If this embedded fingerprinting function is used on smartphones in the future, it will bring subversive changes to the design and function of smartphones. So in the near future, perhaps the front of the smartphone will have no other elements besides the screen and will not be affected in any way. Even flagships like the LG G6 or the Samsung Galaxy S8 are likely to be the first to be used.
At present, many smart phone manufacturers have adopted the ultra-narrow bezel design style, but due to the existence of traditional physical fingerprint recognition buttons, there will still be a considerable space reserved on the front screen. It is known that not all manufacturers prefer post-position. Fingerprint recognition of this design. In the future, this new technology will allow manufacturers to directly embed the fingerprint recognition module under the screen, and the design of the smartphone will become more concise.
Apple's new patent source: appleinsider
In the evening of February 14th, Beijing time, Apple (hereinafter referred to as "Apple") obtained a new technology patent today, which can identify the user's fingerprint through the screen of the mobile phone, thus paving the way for the iPhone 8 to cancel the Home button.
The patent granted to Apple by the US Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) on Tuesday was called "an interactive display panel with an infrared diode." The touch panel incorporates micro-LED sensing technology instead of the active matrix hardware used in traditional touch screens.
The patent application for this technology was originally submitted in June 2014 by micro-LED technology developer LuxVue. In the same year, LuxVue was acquired by Apple. In April last year, the patent application was transferred to Apple.
Recently there is news that the iPhone 8 will use a "full screen" with invisible Home button and Touch ID sensor. Apple can do this through the new patented technology acquired today.
The fingerprint sensing technology currently used by the iPhone requires the user's finger to touch the capacitive drive ring. In order to achieve the "full screen" in the rumor, Apple needs to integrate the Home button into the panel, or remove the Home button completely from the front panel. The industry believes that the latter is more likely.
