TouchStone Fingerprint Sensor for Waterproof Phones
Posted by Pete Paxton in "Smartphone News" @ 01:00 AM
AuthenTec a world leading provider of fingerprint sensors and solutions, today announced that its TouchStone fingerprint sensor packaging technology will enable future generations of waterproof cell phones, including a new phone to enter high-volume production in the fourth quarter of 2008. This new smooth, durable and waterproof packaging technology is AuthenTec’s newest fingerprint sensor packaging alternative for today’s leading cell phone manufacturers. Millions of today’s mobile phones include an AuthenTec sensor to enhance privacy by securing the device’s personal and corporate data (e-mail, photos, contact lists, etc.), provide advanced navigation functions and support secure m-commerce.
Do you password protect your device? I actually don't though I think I should. If you had or if you already have a fingerprint sensor for your device do you or would you use it? It seems like a quick yet secure way to get to your stuff. Now it's even for waterproof devices. I have a feeling we're going to see lots of sensors in future devices.
