Qualcomm's New Fingerprint Scanner Works Through Displays With Heartbeat and Blood Flow Detection

Qualcomm has announced the development of new fingerprint scanners that work through displays, thick glass, and metal with underwater operation, heartbeat and blood flow detection.

The next generation Qualcomm Fingerprint Sensors were unveiled at Mobile World Congress Shanghai 2017. The suite of features consists of sensors for Display, Glass and Metal, detection of directional gestures, and underwater fingerprint match and device wake-up. It is also the first commercially announced integrated ultrasonic-based mobile solution to detect heart beat and blood flow for improved mobile authentication experiences.

“We are excited to announce Qualcomm Fingerprint Sensors because they can be designed to support sleeker, cutting-edge form factors, unique mobile authentication experiences, and enhanced security authentication,” said Seshu Madhavapeddy, vice president, product management, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. “This provides OEMs and operators with the ability to offer truly distinct, differentiated devices with added value on truly groundbreaking new devices.”
