As a very quick follow up to the story I wrote on Authentec’s advanced fingerprint reader/navigation sensor, I have now had some nice images through from their PR division – which show the sensor in place, and the device in which it is deployed (the DoCoMo F906i):
Authentec’s product is the AES1710, which:
“….is based on the Company’s patented TruePrint technology, which reads below the surface of the skin to the live layer where a person’s true fingerprint resides. This unique subsurface approach enables AuthenTec sensors to read virtually every fingerprint, every time — a critical requirement in any fingerprint-enabled device. Other device features include TrueNav menu navigation, TrueFinger anti-spoofing security, and TrueMatch pattern matching to ensure the industry’s highest level of security, usability and convenience.”
As I said before, some nice tech here, now we just need it in European and US devices…
