IDTechEx analysts say there will be over three billion sensors in wearable technology devices by 2025 – with more than 30% categorized as emerging sensor types. As a recently published IDTechEx report notes, sensors are the most diverse component type in wearable devices. Perhaps most importantly, they are responsible for enabling key functionality. “Advances with […]
Amongst all the hype and bluster around mobile payments a fundamental question seems to be largely overlooked – why use mobile payments?
Writing for SemiconductorEngineering, Ernest Worthman notes that while biometrics offer a plethora of potential security-based tools, there are currently only two in wide-scale deployment: fingerprints and facial scanning. Indeed, according to ABI digital security analyst Dimitrios Pavlakis, fingerprints account for 60% to 70% of all biometric applications. Additional technologies eyed by major industry players include […]

The Smart Chip Provides Simplicity and Reliability The Smart card chip can store large amounts of data securely in both read only and read/write formats giving the user the ability to safely add and remove data from their card as required. The smart card chip is contained within a button or module, which is embedded […]
Writing for Semiconductor Engineering, Ernest Worthman notes that Hollywood films have long portrayed a wide range of futuristic biometric security procedures. In addition, a number of mobile devices now offer optional fingerprint scans instead of a traditional password login. However, current biometric technology will have to further evolve if it is to meet the security […]
