Synaptics Incorporated (NASDAQ:SYNA), the leading developer of
human interface solutions, today announced its Natural ID™
fingerprint sensors and ClearPad® touchscreen controllers are
featured on the new ASUS ZenFone AR smartphone. The ZenFone AR is
the industry’s first Google Tango enabled and Daydream-ready
smartphone and built for augmented reality. ASUS selected Synaptics
for its one-touch secure fingerprint authentication and
high-performance touchscreen features.
Synaptics® ClearPad® touchscreen controllers deliver
high-performance multi-finger touch and innovative features such as
grip and palm suppression, and low-power wake-up gestures. The
controller also integrates Synaptics’ advanced analog touch-sensing
circuitry and algorithms to address noise generated by displays
that feature very high resolution, such as the 5.7-inch WQHD Super
AMOLED display used in the ZenFone AR smartphone.
Synaptics’ high-performance Natural ID™ fingerprint sensors are
available with SentryPoint™ technology, offering OEMs a wide-range
of unique and highly secure authentication features including
match-in-sensor technology, Quantum Matcher™ with PurePrint™
anti-spoof technology, and SecureLink™ 256-bit AES with TLS 1.2
encryption.
“We are very excited about the newly launched ASUS ZenFone AR,
the world’s first Tango enabled and Daydream-ready smartphone. The
ZenFone AR was built for augmented reality, and thanks to
Synaptics, adding high-performance touch, and the convenience and
security of fingerprint biometrics was an important upgrade,” said
Rangoon Chang, ASUS General Manager, Mobile Computing Business
Unit, ASUS.
