Abstract
An optical input device integrates functions of fingerprint recognition, movement detection, and physiological analysis, and has a touch surface for receiving touch input of a finger. When a finger contacts the touch surface, the optical input device captures images from the touch surface, detects movement of the finger to generate a movement signal, extracts a fingerprint feature and a vessel blood changing feature from the images, analyzes and compares the fingerprint feature for identity recognition, and performs calculation according to the vessel blood changing feature to generate a physiological signal.
