Huawei Honor 5C features FPC and Precise Biometrics fingerprint technology

 

Fingerprint Cards (FPC) and Precise Biometrics are providing the fingerprint technology for the new Huawei Honor 5C smartphone.

The device uses Precise Biometrics’ algorithm solution for fingerprint recognition in mobile devices, Precise BioMatch Mobile. The fingerprint algorithm is based on Precise Biometrics’ standardized extractor and matcher technology, which is ISO 19794-2 compliant.

The new Huawei Honor 5C smartphone also features Fingerprint Cards’ touch fingerprint sensor FPC1025.

Earlier this year, research firm Acuity Market Intelligence said that more than 200 smartphones incorporating fingerprint, iris, and eye-vein biometrics been introduced since Q1 2013 under 70 brand names including Apple, Samsung, Huawei, Xiaomi, TCL, Oppo, Vivo, and ZTE. Acuity projects that 600 million biometric smartphones are currently in use representing 28% of the global installed base.

Just last week it was announced that FPC and Precise Biometrics are providing the fingerprint technology for the new ZTE V7 Max and ZUK Z2 Pro smartphones.
