Abstract

A multiple-lens optical fingerprint reader for reading fingerprints through a display has a spacer; and multiple microlenses with concave and convex surfaces in a microlens array, each microlens of multiple lenses focuses light arriving at that microlens from a finger adjacent the display through the spacer forms an image on associated photosensors on a photosensor array of an image sensor integrated circuit. A method of verifying identity of a user includes illuminating a finger of the user with an OLED display; focusing light from the finger through arrayed microlenses onto a photosensor array, reading the array into overlapping electronic fingerprint images; extracting features from the overlapping fingerprint images or from a stitched fingerprint image, and comparing the features to features of at least one user in a library of features and associated with one or more fingers of one or more authorized users.
