Abstract:
An electronic device and method of operating an electronic device is provided. The electronic device a display in which a fingerprint recognition area is formed in at least one portion thereof; a fingerprint sensor disposed under the display on which a screen is displayed, wherein the fingerprint sensor is adapted to acquire image information related to authentication of a fingerprint corresponding to an object that approaches a fingerprint recognition area at least partially based on light radiated from at least one pixel of the display and reflected by the object; and a processor adapted to control at least one function of the fingerprint sensor in association with the operation of acquiring the image information.
Abstract:
A display device includes a display panel, a cover glass disposed on the display panel, and a biometric sensor device disposed below the display panel. The biometric sensor device includes a printed circuit board, a biometric sensor disposed on the printed circuit board, and a housing disposed on the printed circuit board and in which an opening is formed. The biometric sensor is disposed in the opening of the housing and is attached to a surface of the display panel through the housing.
Abstract:
An electronic device is disclosed. According to an embodiment, an electronic device may comprise: a transparent member; a display panel that is disposed beneath the transparent member and comprises multiple pixels and at least one transmission area which is formed between the multiple pixels and through which light can pass; a biometric sensor which is disposed beneath the display panel and can acquire light that has been output through at least some of the multiple pixels, has been reflected by an external object near or in contact with the transparent member, and then has passed through the at least one transmission area; and a light path changing member disposed between the biometric sensor and the display panel and spaced a predetermined distance apart from the biometric sensor, the light path changing member being able to change an optical path with respect to at least a part of the light having passed through the at least one transmission area. Various other embodiments found in the specification are also possible.
Abstract:
An electronic device is provided that includes a display in which a fingerprint recognition area is formed and which includes a display pixel layer, and a rear panel, formed under the display, having a first hole. The electronic device also includes a bracket, disposed under the rear panel, having a sensor accommodating area corresponding to a fingerprint sensor. The electronic device additionally includes the fingerprint sensor disposed under the display pixel layer and adapted to acquire image information to be used for authentication of a fingerprint using at least partially light radiated from the display pixel layer and reflected by the object. The sensor accommodating area has a second hole passing through the bracket, and the fingerprint sensor is disposed in the sensor accommodating area such that an air gap between the display and the fingerprint sensor is formed at least by a portion of the second hole.
Abstract:
An electronic device is provided that includes a display. The electronic device also includes a fingerprint sensor disposed under one or more pixels. The fingerprint sensor is adapted to acquire image information corresponding to a fingerprint of an external object that is in proximity to or in contact with the display based on at least a light radiated from at least one pixel and reflected by the external object. The electronic device also includes a rear panel disposed under the display. The rear panel includes an aperture corresponding to a disposition of the fingerprint sensor. The electronic device further includes a bracket disposed under the rear panel to support the display, and including a sensor seating area in which the fingerprint sensor is disposed. The fingerprint sensor is affixed to the sensor seating area. An air gap is formed between the display and the fingerprint sensor.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes: a communication interface configured to support a communication function; and one or more processors configured to perform a temperature detection of the electronic device during the communication function execution, drive a timer warning a communication function termination if the detected temperature information satisfies a specified temperature condition, and output count information corresponding to the timer driving.
