The core algorithms of traditional silicon-based or optical fingerprint recognition solutions generally consist of two steps: capture and comparison.

The capture stage typically uses optical or capacitive sensors to acquire fingerprint images. The algorithm then extracts feature points from the image and compares them with pre-stored templates; a match is determined based on the degree of similarity.

The fundamental limitation of these systems is that they only assess “similarity” rather than verifying “whether the subject is a living person.” Whether using a silicone membrane or conductive adhesive, as long as the fingerprint pattern is replicated closely enough, traditional algorithms will pass the verification. Furthermore, these systems are sensitive to dry or dirty fingers, resulting in poor recognition stability. 

So! The Xingqihang glass-based solution, as a “six-sided warrior,” outperforms the competition across six dimensions:

Flat: The surface flatness of the glass substrate far exceeds that of silicon-based materials, ensuring a seamless bond with the cover plate. This results in a more refined module and improved water and dust resistance.

Thin: It is over 30% thinner than silicon-based materials, freeing up more space for smart door locks, smartphones, and wearable devices, and allowing for greater design flexibility.

Hard: Surface hardness >5H (silicon-based is only 3H), withstanding over a million presses without wear. Even with frequent use in door locks and time clocks, the surface remains clear over the long term.

Accurate: Glass insulation ensures extremely low parasitic effects, resulting in pure signals and high image signal-to-noise ratios. It accurately recognizes fingerprints even when fingers are wet or dry, or the sensor is cracked or dirty.

Fast: 0.25-second response time for instant unlocking. Say goodbye to repeated pressing and enjoy a silky-smooth experience.

Reliable: Infrared liveness detection prevents fake or severed fingers from being recognized; built-in security chip encrypts data to prevent tampering; anti-static design ensures exceptional environmental adaptability.

With these six major advantages, we’ve completely outclassed traditional silicon-based solutions. CoreQ, China’s first original manufacturer of glass-based fingerprint chips—when it comes to fingerprint technology, choose glass-based!
