Synaptics, a leading developer of human interface solutions, today announced a new multi-biometric fusion engine that provides improved security for smartphones, tablets and laptops. The powerful platform leverages both fingerprint and facial biometrics, and is fully integrated into the Synaptics ™ Natural ID ™ fingerprint sensor. The user can select any biometric authentication method based on personal preference or environmental factors (such as wearing gloves) through a multiple fusion engine. Higher security can be achieved by using multiple biometrics when transferring transactions or using other sensitive applications.
The recognition result of the Synaptics Multi-Biometric Fusion Engine is dependent on the authentication of multiple biometrics. Because the fingerprint and facial features must meet the minimum threshold requirements to complete the authentication, so enhance the overall system security. In addition, the fusion engine to reduce personal authentication threshold while also ensuring high security, so have better usability. fs400r07a1e3
Supported by SynapticsSentryPoint ™ technology, the Synaptics Multi-Biometric Fusion Engine provides OEMs with a rich, unique and highly secure identity authentication capability, including Quantum Matcher ™ technology that supports the PurePrint ™ anti-spoofing algorithm. PurePrint uses unique artificial intelligence technology to detect fingerprint images, which distinguish between true and false fingers. Facial recognition also uses the anti-spoofing tool to detect multiple combinations of blink and head movement simultaneously.
"Synaptics' Natural ID Fingerprint Sensor significantly increases security and convenience compared to text ciphers," said Anthony Gioeli, vice president of marketing, Biometrics Products Division, Synaptics. "By adding multiple biometric features, new device-level and application-level identity The first phase of the Fusion Engine focuses on fingerprinting and facial recognition, and future technical iterations will include other biometric and security factors.
Synaptics, in collaboration with KeyLemon, seamlessly integrates secure facial biometrics in SynapticsNatural ID fingerprint authentication. KeyLemon is a leader in continuous face recognition and authentication based on the camera. With the partnership - KeyLemon's innovation and industry experience, this collaboration helps Synaptics gain time-to-market advantage. fs50r12kt3
