Huawei Might Be In Works To Make A New Smartwatch With In-Display Fingerprint Scanner

Huawei made a significant impact in the smartwatch market last year with the launch of the Watch GT 5 and GT 5 Pro, securing the top position in global wrist-worn wearable shipments. According to a recent patent filing spotted by MySmartPrice, Huawei is exploring the integration of an optical fingerprint sensor into its smartwatch displays. Additionally, the patent suggests that the sensor may support multiple gestures and fingerprint inputs, potentially enhancing security and usability. The patent images shared by the publication suggest that Huawei’s fingerprint scanner could capture a 360-degree imprint, allowing for a variety of functions based on different finger placements. The 3D fingerprint sensor is reportedly capable of recognizing multiple gestures, enabling users to assign specific actions to each finger.
