Patent ID: 10460092

Abstract:
Disclosed are a fingerprint identification system and a fingerprint identification method and a display device capable of simplifying operations of starting an application by a user. The fingerprint identification system includes: a fingerprint identification region arranged on a touch screen to acquire an input fingerprint; a fingerprint verification module connected with the fingerprint identification region to verify whether the input fingerprint is a fingerprint of a user and to unlock the touch screen if it is determined that the input fingerprint is the fingerprint of the user; an application start control module connected with the fingerprint identification region and the fingerprint verification module respectively to obtain a finger press direction from the input fingerprint and start an application corresponding to the finger press direction when the input fingerprint is the fingerprint of the user. The finger press direction is a direction in which the finger sequentially contacts the fingerprint identification region upon pressing the fingerprint identification region or a direction opposite thereto, and the finger press direction corresponds to at least one application. The fingerprint identification system of the present invention is used to unlock the touch screen and start the application.
