  • Publication number: 20210333921
    Abstract: A display device, a multi-fingerprint detection device and an operation method thereof are provided. The multi-fingerprint detection device includes a touch circuit and a fingerprint sensing control circuit. The touch circuit performs touch detection control on a touch panel module to determine a plurality of touch regions of a touch event on the touch panel module. The fingerprint sensing control circuit performs fingerprint sensing control on the touch panel module, so that the touch panel module senses a plurality of target sub-regions corresponding to the touch regions, and then obtains fingerprint sensing result of the target sub-regions. The fingerprint sensing control circuit divides the fingerprint sensing result into a plurality of sub-fingerprint images according to the touch regions.

  • Patent number: 10909348
    Abstract: An optical fingerprint sensing device and an operation method thereof are provided. The optical fingerprint sensing device includes an optical fingerprint sensing circuit, an image superimposing circuit and a fingerprint matching circuit. The optical fingerprint sensing circuit is configured to capture an original image of the fingerprint. The image superimposing circuit is coupled to the optical fingerprint sensing circuit. The image superimposing circuit is configured to collect the original image of the fingerprint to obtain a plurality of original fingerprint images. The image superimposing circuit superimposes the original fingerprint images according to at least one superimposition parameter to obtain a superimposed fingerprint image. The fingerprint matching circuit is coupled to the image superimposing circuit to receive the superimposed fingerprint image. The fingerprint matching circuit performs fingerprint matching on the superimposed fingerprint image.
