Norwegian fingerprint sensor firm Idex plans to showcase a flexible touch sensor embedded in an ISO-ID1 smartcard at an upcoming trade show.Idex will be demonstrating its polymer sensor at the Trustech show in France.”IDEX's polymer sensor is uniquely suited for card integration. The IDEX sensor is fully flexible and offers significant cost advantage over conventional silicon sensors due to the small silicon footprint”, said CEO of IDEX, Dr. Hemant Mardia.”IDEX unveiled the world's first flexible sensor for ISO-ID1 in February, and has worked with the card ecosystem to deliver a fingerprint sensor that conforms with standard card mass manufacturing to create a scalable , low cost solution.”.Dr. Mardia, has been invited to speak at the Trustech conference and will be presenting on the requirements for embedding fingerprint sensors in smartcards and IOT devices, markets in which IDEX has enabling solutions with its patented off-chip technology.The firm says that using IDEX's off-chip technology, the fingerprint image area can be scaled to get the best biometrics within power and size constraints for cards and IOT applications.
