Thin-film sensor partners developing finger vein biometrics

Biometrics firm Mofiria and Isorg, a French company specializing in organic photodiodes and printed electronics, have partnered to develop a new sensor technology for vein-based authentication.

The result is supposed to be an ultra-thin sensor, about 1mm thick, capable of authenticating individuals through their finger veins. The sensor could be on the market within a year.

In conventional vein authentication, an optical lens focuses light onto an image sensor, which requires a focal length of several centimeters to capture a …
