Abstract

La présente invention concerne des dispositifs de reconnaissance d'empreinte digitale (200, 300) et des dispositifs électroniques (10, 30) qui peuvent améliorer les performances des dispositifs de reconnaissance d'empreinte digitale (200, 300). Les dispositifs de reconnaissance d'empreinte digitale (200, 300) sont appropriés pour amener la partie inférieure d'un écran d'affichage à réaliser la reconnaissance optique d'empreinte digitale sous l'écran et les dispositifs de reconnaissance d'empreinte digitale (200, 300) comprennent une pluralité d'unités de reconnaissance d'empreinte digitale (301), chaque unité de reconnaissance d'empreinte digitale (301) comprenant : une microlentille (310) ; au moins deux couches de blocage de lumière (321, 322), chacune des couches de blocage de lumière (321, 322) étant pourvue de trous de passage de lumière (3211, 3221, 3222) pour former deux canaux de guidage de lumière dans des directions différentes ; deux unités de pixels (331, 332) situées respectivement au niveau de la partie inférieure des deux canaux de guidage de lumière ; les signaux optiques d'empreinte digitale renvoyés par le doigt au-dessus de l'écran d'affichage étant amenés par la microlentille (310) à converger et puis deux signaux optiques d'empreinte digitale cible dans différentes directions étant respectivement transmis aux deux unités de pixels (331, 332) à travers les deux canaux de guidage de lumière. Plusieurs ensembles de deux unités de pixels (331, 332) dans les dispositifs de reconnaissance d'empreinte digitale (200, 300) reçoivent les signaux optiques d'empreinte digitale dans deux directions différentes et convertissent les signaux optiques d'empreinte digitale en deux images d'empreinte digitale, les deux images d'empreinte digitale se déplaçant pour être reconstruites en une image reconstruite pour la reconnaissance d'empreinte digitale.
