Market Overview
The non-AFIS fingerprint in notebook PCs and wireless devices market is poised for tremendous growth due to the increasing acceptance of fingerprinting in the security environment. Revenue-generating opportunities are proliferating with the widespread adoption of biometrics in the consumer and commercial sectors. "Low cost, convenience, user-friendliness, and enhanced security are expected to be the key drivers for the adoption of biometrically enabled cell phones and notebooks," notes the analyst of this research service. "In addition, the use of non-AFIS fingerprint for disparate m-commerce applications is expected to trigger revenue growth in the foreseeable future." The fingerprint feature prevents unauthorized access to high-security information. Biometrically enabled cell phones and notebooks guarantee heightened security by storing and processing sensitive information in the devices. The alarming rise in the number of cell phone and notebook thefts has made it critical to ensure the safety of user information. Apart from the advantage from the safety viewpoint, biometric fingerprint technology also offers convenience as it eliminates the need for remembering passwords. Fingerprint sensors find application in physical access control, logical access control, government and law enforcement, and transactional authentication. Demand for this technology is growing as advantages such as cost savings, return on investments, enhanced security, and the convenience factor become more apparent.
M-commerce Applications Drive the Penetration Rates of Cell Phones with Fingerprint Sensors
"In Japan, cell phones are being used for various m-commerce applications and as a mode of payment for subway tickets, movie tickets, purchases at stores, restaurant bills, and paying bills over the phone," notes the analyst. In Asia, credit cards and wallets are making way for fingerprint-enabled cell phones for purchases in retail shops, and fingerprint sensors are being used to personalize devices such as notebook PCs and cell phones, integrating functions that include fast user switching, speed dialing, and fast application switching. Another type of sensor that has caught the fancy of cell phone manufacturers is swipe sensors, which can be utilized for screen navigation (as a replacement for the mouse) to scroll and play games. The small size of swipe sensors has made them ideally suited for integration with notebook PCs and mobile phones, making them particularly attractive for the market.
Meanwhile, silicon sensors are gradually emphasizing their superiority over optical sensors. The two most prominent advantages that silicon sensors have over optical sensors are cost efficiency and low power consumption, facilitating integration with cell phones. Efforts by vendors to offer superior electrostatic discharge (ESD) resistance, enhanced performance, and extremely flexible form factor have tipped the scales in favor of silicon sensors, enabling better market acceptance of this product. As the demand for laptops and cell phones escalates, shipment of sensors is anticipated to grow alongside. Participants in this space must market their products strategically, stressing the benefits of incorporating silicon sensors with notebooks and cell phones. Educating end-users on the effective use of this technology is a prerequisite to derive the maximum advantage for this highly promising market.
