Vivo Unveils New Fingerprint Technology At MWC Shanghai 2017

The new fingerprint technology is based on ultrasonic technology and Qualcomm Fingerprint Sensors, claims the company.

 

While rumours have been touting about an under-display fingerprint technology being developed by Apple for its upcoming smartphone, the iPhone 8, Vivo has already launched the technology, claiming it as the industry’s first ever.

This new technology, being christened as ‘Vivo Under Display’ will allow users to unlock the smartphone by using fingerprint technology, but without a fingerprint sensor embedded on a physical button.

Vivo Under  Display is said to be based on Qualcomm Fingerprint Sensors; the ultrasound from the sensors can penetrate an OLED display that is 1.2 mm thick to recognise user fingerprint.

Also, since the Vivo Under Display doesn't require a physical button for the fingerprint sensor, it allows a true full-screen display and an integrated unibody and mechanical waterproofing design. And thus, this will help promote innovative design in smartphone appearance.

Based on ultrasonic technology, the fingerprint recognition technology can be further expanded to realize user interaction, such as gesture recognition, security verification and other fields, which will greatly enhance user experience.
