Global Cellphone Fingerprint Recognition Sensor Market Development Status 2017 Author: Che Hewei Company: QYResearch Date: 2017/5/19
Since Apple first introduced fingerprint recognition technology on iPhone 5s, fingerprint recognition technology in the smart phone market has been rapid development. Compared with other biometrics, fingerprint recognition technology has the advantages of more convenient, easy to use, stable, and low cost under the premise of ensuring the safety and accuracy. Global Cellphone Fingerprint Recognition Sensors technology is concentrated in a handful of companies in a few countries. Leading players in Cellphone Fingerprint Recognition Sensors industry are Apple

(AuthenTec), Synaptics, Fingerprints, Goodix, Qualcomm, etc. AuthenTec is the best manufacturer of Fingerprint Recognition Sensors all around the world, acquired by Apple in 2012 and is now only available for Apple. And FPC has become the largest supplier of non-Apple mobile phone camp. USA, Europe and China are now the key production region of Cellphone Fingerprint Recognition Sensors in Global. At present, Cellphone Fingerprint Recognition Sensors are mainly divided into Capacitance Sensor, Ultrasonic Sensor, Optical Sensor and RF Sensor. Capacitance Sensor is the most widely used in smartphones. Ultrasonic Sensor is less used in smartphones, currently XIaomi 5S and Le Max2 using such sensors. Qualcomm is the representative supplier of Ultrasonic Sensor. In the field of smart phones, there is no mobile phone using optical fingerprint recognition sensor. However, it is said that iPhone 8 will use optical fingerprint recognition sensor. Synaptics and Goodix have developed Optical Fingerprint Sensor. The mainly producers of RF Sensor are Betterlife, BIOSEC and J-Metrics. The "2017 Global Cellphone Fingerprint Recognition Sensor Market Development Status" released by QYResearch shows that the total sales of Cellphone Fingerprint Recognition Sensors are about 620 Million Pcs in 2016 all around the world. In the first half of 2016, China's smartphone shipments reached 240 million units. The shipments of smart phone with fingerprint identification are more than 100 million units, with the penetration rate of more than 40%. It is expected that the penetration will be further improved.
