In a method of obtaining a reference image for optical object recognition, first light sources among a plurality of light sources included in a display panel are driven where the first light sources are disposed to correspond to an object recognition window which is a partial region of the display panel, a plurality of images are contemporaneously obtained based on reflected light received by an object recognition sensor through the object recognition window while driving the first light sources, at least one of the plurality of images is obtained as a first reference image for optical object recognition associated with a first object, and the first reference image is stored.

Method and device for reference imaging and optical object recognition

Various example embodiments are directed towards systems, apparatuses, and/or methods of obtaining a reference image for optical object recognition, the method including driving a subset of light sources of a plurality of light sources, receiving, using an object recognition sensor, light reflected off a first target object, obtaining a first reference image based on the reflected light, obtaining a first target image associated with the first target object based on the reflected light, obtaining at least one first environment information using at least one environmental sensor while driving the subset of light sources, the first environment information associated with a surrounding environment, storing the first reference image and the first environment information together, and obtaining a first effective image for the first target object based on the first target image and the first reference image.

Method of obtaining reference image for optical object recognition and method of performing optical object recognition using the same

A display device is provided. The display device includes a display panel including a pixels; a fingerprint recognition sensor including an image sensor disposed under a first surface of the display panel; and a processor to control the display panel and the fingerprint recognition sensor. A portion of display pixels are configured to emit light in a fingerprint recognition mode. The image sensor includes pixels, at least a portion of the pixels are phase detection pixels. The image sensor generates a fingerprint image signal and a fingerprint phase signal based on reflected light received while the portion of display pixels emit light. The main processor is further configured to perform an anti-spoofing operation or a fingerprint authentication operation based on the fingerprint image signal and the fingerprint phase signal.

Display device and method of anti-spoofing of the display device

Provided is a method of performing a half-shutter function using optical object recognition, the method including: displaying a shutter button on a display panel by driving a portion of a plurality of light sources included in the display panel, the portion of the plurality of light sources being disposed corresponding to an object recognition window of the display panel; obtaining a first image based on reflected light received by an object recognition sensor through the object recognition window while driving the portion of the plurality of light sources; determining whether the first image includes a first object, the first object having a half-shutter state; and based on a determination that the first image includes the first object having the half-shutter state, performing a half-shutter process.
