  • Patent number: 11869267
    Abstract: A multiple-lens optical fingerprint reader for reading fingerprints through a display has a spacer; and multiple microlenses with concave and convex surfaces in a microlens array, each microlens of multiple lenses focuses light arriving at that microlens from a finger adjacent the display through the spacer forms an image on associated photosensors on a photosensor array of an image sensor integrated circuit. A method of verifying identity of a user includes illuminating a finger of the user with an OLED display; focusing light from the finger through arrayed microlenses onto a photosensor array, reading the array into overlapping electronic fingerprint images; extracting features from the overlapping fingerprint images or from a stitched fingerprint image, and comparing the features to features of at least one user in a library of features and associated with one or more fingers of one or more authorized users.

  • Publication number: 20220230011
    Abstract: A multiple-lens optical fingerprint reader for reading fingerprints through a display has an image sensor integrated circuit with photosensor array(s); a spacer; and multiple lenses in a microlens array, each lens of multiple lenses focuses light arriving at that lens from a finger adjacent the display through the spacer to form an image on associated photosensors on a photosensor array of the integrated circuit. A method of verifying identity of a user includes illuminating a finger of the user with an OLED display; focusing light from the fingerprint through arrayed microlenses onto a photosensor array of an integrated circuit, reading the array to overlapping electronic fingerprint images; extracting features from the overlapping electronic fingerprint images or from a stitched fingerprint image, and comparing the features to features of at least one user in a library of features and associated with one or more fingers of one or more authorized users.

  • Patent number: 7929217
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a projection lens. The projection lens includes, in order from the magnified end to the minified end thereof, a first lens of negative refraction power, a second lens of positive refraction power, a third lens of negative refraction power, a fourth lens of positive refraction power, and a fifth lens of positive refraction power. The forth lens and the third lens are bonded to integrally form a compound lens of negative refraction power. The projection lens satisfies the following condition: 0.4<R12/f<0.9. Wherein, R12 is a radius of curvature of the surface at the minified end of the first lens, f is an effective focal length of the projection lens.

  • Patent number: 7924508
    Abstract: A projection lens includes, in the order from a large conjugate side to a small conjugate side thereof, a negative lens group having a negative refractive power and a positive lens group having a positive refractive power. The positive lens group includes, in the order from the large conjugate side to the small conjugate side of the projection lens, a front sub-group and a rear sub-group each having a positive refractive power. The projection lens satisfies the formulas: ?1.35<F1/F<?0.35 and 3<F24/F<5, where F1, F24, and F correspondingly represent the effective focal lengths of the negative lens group, the rear sub-group, and the projection lens.
