Layout fingerprinting

Big domestic layout fingerprint recognition domestic manufacturers are expected to give birth

With more electronic giants participating in the war, fingerprint identification will face capacity constraints, and domestic manufacturers are expected to share a slice of fingerprint recognition packaging. According to the Shanghai Daily reporter, there are already many listed companies in the A-share market who are involved in fingerprint identification in advance.

Samsung's new debut concept 4 companies to preemptive layout fingerprint identification

Apple's "heavy gold" exploration in the field of fingerprint recognition quickly attracted the responders. Recently, Samsung took GALAXYS5 to the World Mobile Communications Conference and once again attracted the attention of the market. Industry insiders judge that under the leadership of Apple and Samsung’s two smart terminal giants, the field of fingerprint sensors will be injected with “intensity”.

With more electronic giants participating in the war, fingerprint identification will face capacity constraints, and domestic manufacturers are expected to share a slice of fingerprint recognition packaging. According to the Shanghai Daily reporter, there are already many listed companies in the A-share market who are involved in fingerprint identification in advance.

Will become a standard mobile terminal

On February 24, at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, ​​Spain, Samsung released its first flagship model, the Galaxy S5, in 2014. The biggest highlight of this new phone is the integration of a fingerprint sensor on the Home button. The fingerprint recognition of the Galaxy S5 belongs to scan recognition, and the user can use it for mobile payment. Different from the operation mode of the IPhone, the Galaxy S5 user needs to perform a slide operation on the fingerprint sensor from the top down to complete the recognition. In addition to unlocking the screen, Samsung also provides users with new features for data encryption protection through fingerprint recognition. In addition, this phone also has built-in sensors for detecting heartbeats and applications that include health care.

As smart phones become more and more functional, it is difficult to ensure security by setting passwords alone (passwords are vulnerable to hacking). Analysts believe that fingerprint technology will become the next-generation security barrier for personal mobile devices. The technology is mature and relatively safe and convenient.

It is worth mentioning that Google, the developer of the Android mobile operating system for Samsung mobile phones, has recently taken over the acquisition of network security technology company. Before that, it had acquired Slicklogin, an Israeli company that developed acoustic identification technology. This technology is actually trying to replace the traditional password login. To ensure computer security. Of course, it is still too early to say whether this technology is used for smart phones. However, the giants have intervened to show that with the wider application of smart phones, various security technologies including fingerprint recognition will usher in a broader market.

Electronic industry analysts told reporters that fingerprint recognition is the perfect combination of security and convenience. It meets the higher security requirements of mobile smart devices and at the same time meets the user's convenience needs. The industry is generally optimistic that the fingerprint identification function will become the standard for smart phones and tablet computers.

Listed companies advance layout

In the A-share market, companies such as Aerospace Information, Hang Seng Electronics, Shanghai Putian, and Shanghai Belling have laid out areas for fingerprint identification or biometric identification in advance. However, currently domestic fingerprint identification technologies are mainly used in public security, military, financial banking, and food and drug supervision. In the high-end areas, most companies are still waiting to see the applications of mobile terminals such as smart phones.

The person in charge of aerospace information told reporters that similar biometric technologies such as fingerprint recognition are interlinked, but the current application scope of the company includes public security, food supervision, etc., and does not involve smartphone business. Whether it will cooperate with smart phone manufacturers in the future on fingerprint identification It also depends on the market. Shanghai Putian also stated that the company's fingerprint identification is currently mainly used in second generation licenses, POS machines and other markets, and has not been involved in the field of smart phones.

It is worth mentioning that the main business of Welsh Technology, a 20% subsidiary of Hang Seng Electronics, is fingerprint identification. It is understood that Ville Technology is a leading provider of biometric product technology and solutions in China. Technology and products are widely used in transportation, finance, security, medical and many other fields. Yesterday, the company said in an interview with reporters: "The mobile terminal is only one of the areas covered by fingerprint recognition technology. The company entered the field of fingerprint identification earlier and has occupied a certain industry position. With the popularity of fingerprint recognition technology, the company also considered and Related mobile phone manufacturers have started cooperation, but it is not yet possible to disclose progress."

In addition, Shanghai Belling has also entered the field of fingerprint identification through its 5% stake in the company. The person in charge of Zhongzheng Technology told reporters that the company has mastered the core algorithm of fingerprinting. Specifically, it uses a separate collector (USB, Bluetooth, WIFI) to connect with a mobile phone, and finally achieves fingerprint comparison, collection, and authentication through supporting applications in smart phones such as mobile phones.

Industry chain is expected to deliver

In other words, at present, few companies in China are directly involved in the field of fingerprint sensing. According to industry insiders, since fingerprint identification can provide the most secure, reliable and convenient identity authentication in the mobile payment process, Apple and Samsung have identified fingerprint identification as the main direction of smart terminals. It is expected that other brand manufacturers will follow suit in the future. Instead of the addition of the Apple camp, it will lead to tight production capacity for fingerprint recognition. Although domestic manufacturers have not yet entered the fingerprint identification sensor, they still can share a slice of fingerprint recognition package.

Currently, the companies most directly involved in the fingerprint identification sensor industry chain include: WLCSP wafer-level package manufacturers for Apple fingerprint recognition sensors, and SMIC for FPC's foundry. Potential listed companies include: another WLCSP wafer-level packaging company, Hua Tian Technology, and Huan Xu Electronics, which may cut into the SiP system-level package of the Apple fingerprint recognition sensor in the future. In addition, the sapphire manufacturers represented by Dong Jing Jing Electronics and Tian Tong shares in the listed companies may also benefit from this.

Market participants believe that with the improvement of fingerprint identification technology, the fingerprint technology industry in the next five years will have nearly 10 billion yuan in the market waiting for the development of enterprises, fingerprint identification technology is about to usher in a golden period of development, the market prospect is broad.

New Cape once again explained cooperation with Alipay and fingerprint identification technology

On February 24, New Cape issued a change notification announcement for the stock price, explaining again with Alipay cooperation and fingerprint identification technology. New Cape said that in recent days, related media have classified the company as a fingerprint identity concept stock. As of now, the company has not carried out cooperation with relevant smartphone design and manufacturers on fingerprint identification technology.
