Abstract:
A method of initiating a calibration operation of an optical fingerprint sensing device comprising an array of photosensitive elements for capturing a fingerprint pattern, the method comprising acquiring information indicative of a change of an environmental parameter influencing the operation of the fingerprint sensing device; and if the change is larger than a predetermined threshold value, performing a calibration operation of the fingerprint sensing device. There is also provided a fingerprint sensing device configured to perform the method, and a consumer electronic device comprising such a fingerprint sensing device.

Claim (Index 21):
An electronic consumer device comprising a display panel and an optical fingerprint arranged underneath the display panel and configured to capture an image of a finger in contact with an outer surface of the display panel, the optical fingerprint sensing device comprising an array of photosensitive elements configured to capture a fingerprint pattern, said device comprising at least one processor configured to:\n acquire information indicative of a change of an environmental parameter influencing the operation of said fingerprint sensing device; and if said change is larger than a predetermined threshold value, perform a calibration operation of said fingerprint sensing device, wherein said fingerprint sensing device or said electronic consumer device further comprises a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, and/or an electromagnetic field sensor, and wherein said environmental parameter is selected from the group comprising humidity, temperature and electrical field strength, wherein acquiring information indicative of a change of an environmental parameter comprises: determining a present value of the environmental parameter; determining a difference between said present value of said environmental parameter and a predetermined value of said environmental parameter; and if said difference is larger than said predetermined threshold value, performing said calibration operation of said fingerprint sensing device, and wherein said predetermined value of said environmental parameter is a value determined at a last performed calibration operation.
