Synaptics Incorporated announced that the Society for Information Display (SID) has named Synaptics’ Clear ID optical-based in-display fingerprint sensor technology as Component of the Year.
Designed to enable smartphones with OLED infinity displays, Synaptics’ Clear ID in-display fingerprint sensors are placed in a natural location directly in the touchscreen, eliminating the need for buttons and enabling larger bezel-free displays. Clear ID is now available in retail stores on Vivo X20 Plus UD and Vivo X21 UD smartphones.
Presented by SID, the 2018 Display Industry Awards (DIAs) recognize innovative display products, components, and applications that hold the most promise for shaping the future of the global display industry. The DIAs are awarded each year in three categories: Display of the Year, Display Application of the Year, and Display Component of the Year.
“We are delighted to award Synaptics a Display Component of the Year Award for its Clear ID optical in-display fingerprint sensor,” said Wei Chen, SID’s Display Industry Awards Committee chairman.
“It is truly an honor to accept this prestigious award for Clear ID on behalf of the highly talented Synaptics team,” said Kevin Barber, SVP and GM, Mobile Division, Synaptics. “We believe consumers prefer fingerprint authentication on the front of the phone, and with the industry moving towards bezel-free OLED infinity displays, the natural placement of the fingerprint sensor is in the display itself.”
Synaptics fingerprint sensors are available with highly secure SentryPoint technology, offering OEMs a wide-range of unique authentication software, including Quantum Matcher for adaptive fingerprint template matching and authentication; SecureLink which combines support for TLS protocol with ECC authentication and AES encryption; and PurePrint anti-spoof technology to help distinguish between fake or spoofed fingerprints and actual live fingers.
