Research and Markets: Samsung Galaxy S5 - Home Button Synaptics Fingerprint Sensor Technology Analysis


DUBLIN --(Business Wire)--

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/wqm7r8/samsung_galaxy_s5) has announced the addition of the "Samsung Galaxy S5 - Home Button Synaptics Fingerprint Sensor Technology Analysis" report to their offering.

Based on a totally different sensing technology than the iPhone (News - Alert) 5S, Samsung introduces for the first time a fingerprint sensor in its product.

The Galaxy S5 home button presents an innovative fingerprint sensor developed by Synaptics (News - Alert), a world leader in capacitive sensing human interface solutions for consumer electronics companies.



Samsung's (News - Alert) fingerprint sensor is using an innovative PCB technology for capacitive sensing of ridge peaks and ridge valleys of a fingerprint on a swiped finger. The sensor senses the speed of the finger as it is swiped across the image sensor and recognize the fingerprint image.

Located above the home button, the 17.5×5.5 mm sensor is incorporated within a rectangular shaped housing composed of an aluminum ring and a stainless steel base. The sensor is protected by a white plastic cover.
