Munich, Germany – 11 October 2024 – Fingerprint sensing offers accurate and cost-effective biometric performance. Compared to other means of authentication like using a smartphone or typing a pin in a user interface of the vehicle, fingerprint sensing provides less hassle and better ease of use for the driver. For those reasons, biometric functions are a rising trend in the automotive industry. To address this, Infineon Technologies AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX: IFNNY) launches the new automotive-qualified fingerprint sensor ICs CYFP10020A00 and CYFP10020S00. The devices are optimized for attaching to Infineon's TRAVEO™ T2G microcontroller family and comply with the AEC-Q100 requirements for the automotive industry. The sensors offer powerful fingerprint identification and authentication capabilities. This makes them ideal for in-vehicle personalization and payment authentication, such as charging, parking or other services, as well as for authentication and identification applications outside the automotive sector. Infineon has partnered with Precise Biometrics for Biomatch algorithm software to provide a best-in-class fingerprint identification and authentication solution.
