Technology Advantages
High definition sensing – UPEK high definition sensing captures
the highest quality images for secure authentication and a
convenient user experience.
Capacitive Sensing – UPEK sensors measure feedback
capacitance determined by the presence of 3-dimensional
ridges and valleys of a fingerprint.
Active Pixel Sensing – Each pixel has its own amplifier for
crisp, detailed images.
Live Layer Sensing - UPEK sensors sense both the surface
and the subsurface, or “live layer”, of the skin.
Large Image Area – UPEK sensors scan larger finger areas to enable more accurate authentication and a more accommodating user experience.
Rugged – High sensitivity pixels enable the use of a hard protective coating and the ability to withstand high levels of electrostatic discharge (ESD) for long, trouble-free operation.
Technology Benefits
Security and privacy protection - Reliably recognizes authorized individuals and prevents unauthorized access
Convenience and ease-of-access - Consistently recognizes enrolled users over time and in various environments
Benefits for all - Allows virtually anyone to enjoy the security and convenience benefits of fingerprint authentication
