Synaptics, Inc. American neural network technologies and computer-to-human interface devices development company based in San Jose, California. [2] [3] It develops touchpads and fingerprint biometrics technology for computer laptops; touch, display driver, and fingerprint biometrics technology for smartphones; and touch, video and far-field voice, and wireless technology for smart home devices ...
The swipe fingerprint sensor uses 3D sensing technology to image a high-resolution 3D picture of the fingerprint. Rolling or pressing the finger against a sensor can cause inconsistencies because the skin deforms when being pressed against the sensor. 3D touch-less fingerprint scanners can overcome these problems for a faster and more ...
Closeup of a touchpad on an Acer CB5-311 laptop Closeup of a touchpad on a MacBook 2015 laptop. A touchpad or trackpad is a type of pointing device.Its largest component is a tactile sensor: an electronic device with a flat surface, that detects the motion and position of a user's fingers, and translates them to 2D motion, to control a pointer in a graphical user interface on a computer screen.
The HID standard was adopted primarily to enable innovation in PC input devices and to simplify the process of installing such devices. Prior to the introduction of the HID concept, devices usually conformed to strictly defined protocols for mouse, keyboards and joysticks; for example, the standard mouse protocol at the time supported relative X- and Y-axis data and binary input for up to two ...
[124] [125] [126] Synaptics says the SecurePad sensor is now available for OEMs to start building into their laptops. [127] In 2018, Synaptics revealed that their in-display fingerprint sensors would be featured on the new Vivo X21 UD smartphone. This was the first mass-produced fingerprint sensor to be integrated into the entire touchscreen ...

The iPhone 5s (pictured) was the first model with a Touch ID sensor integrated with its home button. In 2012, Apple acquired AuthenTec, a company focused on fingerprint-reading and identification management software, for $356 million. [1] The acquisition led commentators to expect a fingerprint reading feature. [1] [2]
One of the earliest applications of haptic technology was in large aircraft that use servomechanism systems to operate control surfaces. [9] In lighter aircraft without servo systems, as the aircraft approached a stall, the aerodynamic buffeting (vibrations) was felt in the pilot's controls.
