Wireless fingerprint identity apparatus and method
First Claim
1. A fingerprint identity apparatus for an electronic system, comprising:
- an identity device, having a fingerprint image sensor module coupled to a radio frequency (RF) module, wherein the RF module transmits fingerprint data, gathered by the fingerprint image sensor, by a wireless transmission protocol;
a receiver module, receiving the fingerprint data transmitted by wireless transmission; and
a fingerprint identification module, coupled to the receiver module and a memory module to save predetermined fingerprint data, wherein the fingerprint identification module differentiates the fingerprint data, received by the receiver module, from the predetermined fingerprint data and controls the electronic system accordingly.
