  • Publication number: 20200151415
    Abstract: A method for fingerprint recognition is provided. An electronic device includes a touch screen. The touch screen has a fingerprint recognition area. The fingerprint recognition area is capable of being pressed by at least two fingers. The method includes the following. Touched areas in the fingerprint recognition area are selected as target touch areas upon detecting a touch operation on the touch screen. One target touch area corresponds to one finger which applies pressure to the touch screen. A fingerprint image in each target touch area is acquired to obtain at least one fingerprint image. Determine whether each of the at least one fingerprint image is matched with a corresponding fingerprint image template of a preset fingerprint image template set. A preset operation corresponding to the touch operation is triggered, upon determining that each of the at least one fingerprint image is matched with a corresponding fingerprint image template.

  • Publication number: 20200151417
    Abstract: A fingerprint capturing method, an electronic device, and a storage medium are disclosed. The fingerprint capturing method may be applied to an electronic device including a touch screen. The fingerprint capturing method includes: when a luminance of a fingerprint capturing area of the touch screen is a first luminance value, adjusting the luminance of the fingerprint capturing area to a second luminance value in response to detecting a touch operation on the fingerprint capturing area; and capturing a fingerprint image corresponding to the touch operation under the second luminance value via a fingerprint sensor, wherein the fingerprint sensor is disposed below the fingerprint capturing area.
