The Chinese smartphone giant is working on a new all-screen in-display fingerprint unlocking technology. This will help users to quickly unlock their smartphones by keeping their fingertip on any part of the display which was confined to a specific part of the display.
The new Biometric authentication has come a long since it’s inception in smartphones from Touch ID or sensors mounted on the back of the device to the modern in-display fingerprint scanner which apparently is getting an upgrade too thais time.
According to Twitter user StuffListings, Xiaomi is said to be working on this new tech that allows the whole screen to function as a fingerprint sensor. This easily allows you to unlock your phone by presenting a registered fingerprint anywhere on the screen.
Xiaomi seems to have made enough progress in this tech as the images linked to the Tweet suggests it’s already in action. This technology is real and Vivo had already demonstrated this feature last year with the Apex 2019 concept phone.
But the thing that remains unclear is when it will make its way to a commercial smartphone. A lot of smartphone manufacturers are working on this already and the ones who makes its way first will obviously benefit more.
But as the current pandemic has delayed every sector, it will be interesting when Xiaomi actually responds with this tech on one of its upcoming smartphones.
