Electronic Assembly, Apparatus and Method for Detecting User's Fingerprints - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240345645 titled 'Electronic Assembly, Apparatus and Method for Detecting User's Fingerprints
Simplified Explanation: This patent application describes an electronic assembly and method for detecting a user's fingerprints using a touch-sensitive surface and a fingerprint sensor. The assembly includes two controller circuits and a host system for processing information related to the user's finger position and movement.
- Touch-sensitive surface for user touch registration
- Fingerprint sensor for detecting user fingerprints
- Two controller circuits for activating the sensor and detecting finger position/movement
- Host system for processing information from the controller circuits
- First controller circuit activates a portion of the sensor for fingerprint reading based on finger position
Key Features and Innovation:
- Integration of touch-sensitive surface and fingerprint sensor for user authentication
- Dual controller circuits for sensor activation and finger tracking
- Host system for processing and analyzing fingerprint information
- Adaptive fingerprint sensor activation based on finger position
Potential Applications: This technology can be used in smartphones, tablets, laptops, and other devices requiring secure user authentication.
Problems Solved:
- Enhanced user security through fingerprint detection
- Seamless integration of fingerprint sensor with touch-sensitive surface
Benefits:
- Improved user authentication process
- Enhanced device security
- Convenient and efficient fingerprint reading
Commercial Applications: Potential commercial applications include mobile devices, laptops, access control systems, and other devices requiring secure user authentication.
Questions about fingerprint detection technology: 1. How does this technology improve user security compared to traditional authentication methods? 2. What are the potential limitations of integrating a fingerprint sensor with a touch-sensitive surface?

Original Abstract Submitted
electronic assembly and method () for detecting user's fingerprints, comprising a touch-sensitive surface () configured to register user touch; a fingerprint sensor () for detecting user's fingerprints on at least a part of the touch-sensitive surface; a first controller circuit (cu) configured to activate the fingerprint sensor and receive fingerprint information from the fingerprint sensor and a second controller circuit (cu) configured to detect the position and/or movement of a user's finger on () or above () the touch-sensitive surface in response to signals from the touch-sensitive surface. the electronic assembly further comprises a host system (cpu) connected to the first and second controller circuits, where the host system comprises circuitry for processing information received from the first and second controller circuits. the first controller circuit configured to receive information from the second controller circuit related to the current position () and/or movement (v) of the user's finger on or above the touch-sensitive surface and activate a portion () of the fingerprint sensor on which to perform fingerprint reading.
