Abstract: A method for processing fingerprint information includes acquiring, in response to detection of a software-initiated fingerprint verification request, verification data from the fingerprint verification request by a hardware accelerator, performing fingerprint verification on the verification data by the hardware accelerator to obtain a processing result, and outputting, by the hardware accelerator, the processing result into a memory address specified by the software. According to the solution, instead of the traditional fingerprint verification mode which completely depends on software, a hardware accelerator is used to perform verification on the verification data and output a processing result, thereby improving the bottleneck of fingerprint verification speed.

The embossed sheet is cut to provide plural connecting sheets, and the partial overlapping of two adjacent connecting sheets is ultrasonically welded to provide a connected exterior. At least one groove is cut in the predetermined drawing surface of the exterior to provide a ball texture.

Abstract: A method of film laminating begins with a drying step for drying a plastic composition. A heating step melts the plastic composition to form a gelatinized combination. An extruding step extrudes the gelatinized combination, and in a blow molding step air is blown into the gelatinized combination to provide a film composition. In a flattening step, the film composition is flattened to form a film, and then in a first laminating step, a heterogeneous material is laminated onto a surface of the film using an adhesive to form a composite. Finally, in a cutting step, the composite is cut into suitable lengths.

Abstract: A method of film printing includes an initial drying step for drying a plastic composition. Then, in a heating step, the plastic combination is melted to provide a gelatinized combination. In an extruding step, the gelatinized combination is extruded. In a blow molding step, air is blown into the gelatinized combination to provide a film composition, which is flattened in a flattening step to provide an unfinished film. In a first printing step, a surface of the unfinished film is printed upon to provide a printed film printing. A cutting step cuts the printed film, while a rolling step rolls up the cut and printed film to provide a final film material.
