Xiaomi Mi5 with Qualcomm Snapdragon Sense 3D Fingerprint
According to new rumors leaked in China, it is Xiaomi Mi 5 will be the first smartphone to use the ultrasonic fingerprint recognition technology developed by Qualcomm. Already in March, when Qualcomm officially announced the new fingerprint reading technology, theChinese OEM he said that with this technology it eliminates the need for a capacitive sensor, improving its accuracy. This new technology has been called Snapdragon Sense 3D Fingerprint.
Basically, the ultrasound reader is able to create a map 3D of the finger, complete with all the micro-crests of the skin. But not only! Qualcomm claims that this technology works well even with wet or dirty fingers, unlike current fingerprint readers.
What is particularly interesting is that the ultrasonic sensor is able to recognize fingerprints through various materials, such as glass, metal and plastic. This means that the technology does not require a capacitive sensor placed outside the body. Instead, with the "old" sensor, many manufacturers place the sensor behind the display, which can improve the overall ergonomics of the phone.
