THERMAL FLEXIBLE FOIL-FINGERPRINTSENSOR

摘要

At the Institute of Microsystem Technology of the Albert-Ludwigs-Universitat Freiburg, a foil fingerprint sensor (FFPS) was developed for application in the broad biometric field. The sensor principle is patented and contains new know-how, which is based on knowledge of microsystem technology [1]. It possesses in this form a world-wide unique position. These for the first time flexible and foil-based sensors are primarily conceived for the installation on smartcards. The flexible finperprint sensor has crucial advantages compared to the sensors present on the market. It can replace today's expensive silicon fingerprint sensors and amend the possible application area.
