Fujitsu Achieves World’s Smallest and Slimmest Vein Sensor
The sensor’s smaller and slimmer form factor makes it easy to incorporate into the design of personal computers and other electronic devices, thereby helping to expand the range of potential applications for palm vein authentication.
With the inclusion of a high-speed image-capture function that can continuously capture up to 20 frames per second, as well as a feature that can instantly pick out the best image for authentication and automatically verify it, users do not need to hold their hand motionless over the sensor, as before, but can instead perform authentication by simply placing their palm lightly over the sensor. This enables a dramatic improvement in usability.
The sensor includes a high-speed image-capture system that continuously captures the user’s palm veins at 20 frames per second, as well as a feature that instantly identifies the best image from among the captured images and automatically verifies it. This allows users to perform authentication by simply placing their palm lightly over the sensor, rather than holding their hand motionless over the sensor, as before, thereby enabling highly-accurate and convenient operation.
