Fingerprint Cards (Fingerprints) Description

Fingerprint Cards AB (Fingerprints) is a biometric technology company that develops and supplies fingerprint sensors, iris recognition software, and related algorithms for secure authentication. Founded in the late 1990s and headquartered in Sweden, the company has shipped over 1.5 billion fingerprint sensors, primarily to mobile phone and PC manufacturers, making it one of the largest fingerprint sensor suppliers by volume. Fingerprints offers a range of biometric modalities including capacitive fingerprint touch sensors, in-display fingerprint sensors, and iris recognition software. Their iris recognition platform, now in its fourth generation, provides touchless authentication that functions reliably with accessories such as glasses and masks, and is designed for use in automotive, access control, and Zero Trust security frameworks. Historically, the company's revenue was concentrated in the consumer electronics segment — mobile phones and PCs — but increasing commoditization and price pressure in those markets have led Fingerprints to exit those segments. The company is now strategically refocusing on higher-margin verticals including government and security, enterprise and industrial, healthcare, financial services, and biometric locks. Key products include the FPC AllKey fingerprint system and the T-Shape sensor module for biometric payment cards. The company also operates an IP monetization program, licensing its technology assets to partners such as Egis Technology, PixArt, and SmartEye. Fingerprints targets use cases such as physical and logical access control, biometric payment cards, digital identity platforms, IoT authentication, and enterprise security. Their solutions are positioned to support multi-factor authentication (MFA) and passwordless authentication architectures.
