Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a fingerprint recognition method and related products. The method may include: acquiring by the mobile terminal a first fingerprint image in a first fingerprint recognition mode; matching the first fingerprint image and a first enrolled fingerprint template; acquiring a second fingerprint image in a second fingerprint recognition mode, in response to detecting a number of consecutive occurrences of failure matching event; verifying whether the second fingerprint image is a valid fingerprint image; and determining that fingerprint is verified when the second fingerprint image is the valid fingerprint image.

Claims (40)

1. A mobile terminal, comprising a circuitry, a first fingerprint recognition component associated with the circuitry, and a second fingerprint recognition component associated with the circuitry, wherein,

the first fingerprint recognition component is configured to acquire a first fingerprint image within a first fingerprint recognition region of the mobile terminal in a first fingerprint recognition mode;

the circuitry is configured to match the first fingerprint image and a first enrolled fingerprint template;

the second fingerprint recognition component is configured to acquire a second fingerprint image within a second fingerprint recognition region of the mobile terminal in a second fingerprint recognition mode, in response to detecting a number of consecutive occurrences of failure matching event, wherein the first fingerprint recognition mode is different from the second fingerprint recognition mode;

the circuitry is further configured to verify whether the second fingerprint image is a valid fingerprint image, and the first fingerprint recognition region does not overlap with the second fingerprint recognition region;

wherein the mobile terminal further comprises a displaying screen and a rear cover, when the second fingerprint recognition region is located on the displaying screen, the displaying screen is further configured to highlight the second fingerprint recognition region; wherein highlighting the second fingerprint recognition region comprises: highlighting a boundary of the second fingerprint recognition region; flickering the boundary of the second fingerprint recognition region or showing text information in the second fingerprint recognition region.

2. The mobile terminal according to claim 1 , wherein, when the circuitry matches the first fingerprint image and the first enrolled fingerprint template, the circuitry is configured to:

extract a fingerprint feature from the first fingerprint image; and

match the extracted fingerprint feature and the first enrolled fingerprint template.

3. The mobile terminal according to claim 1 , wherein, when the circuitry verifies whether the second fingerprint image is a valid fingerprint image, the circuitry is configured to:

match the second fingerprint image and a second enrolled fingerprint template corresponding to the second fingerprint recognition mode.

4. The mobile terminal according to claim 1 , wherein,

the displaying screen is further configured to output prompt information, wherein the prompt information is configured to prompt a user to switch the first fingerprint recognition mode to the second fingerprint recognition mode.

5. The mobile terminal according to claim 1 , wherein,

the first fingerprint recognition mode is one of a capacitive fingerprint recognition mode and an optical fingerprint recognition mode, and the second fingerprint recognition mode is the other one of the capacitive fingerprint recognition mode and the optical fingerprint recognition mode.

6. A fingerprint recognition method, comprising:

acquiring a first fingerprint image within a first fingerprint recognition region of the mobile terminal in a first fingerprint recognition mode;

matching the first fingerprint image and a first enrolled fingerprint template;

acquiring a second fingerprint image within a second fingerprint recognition region of the mobile terminal in a second fingerprint recognition mode, in response to detecting a number of consecutive occurrences of failure matching event, wherein the first fingerprint recognition mode is different from the second fingerprint recognition mode, and the first fingerprint recognition region does not overlap with the second fingerprint recognition region;

verifying whether the second fingerprint image is a valid fingerprint image; and

determining that fingerprint is verified when the second fingerprint image is the valid fingerprint image;

wherein when the second fingerprint recognition region is located on a displaying screen of the mobile terminal, the method further comprises: highlighting the second fingerprint recognition region; wherein highlighting the second fingerprint recognition region comprises: highlighting a boundary of the second fingerprint recognition region; flickering the boundary of the second fingerprint recognition region or showing text information in the second fingerprint recognition region.

7. The method according to claim 6 , further comprising:

determining that fingerprint is verified in response to detecting a successful matching event prior to the number of consecutive occurrences of failure matching event.

8. The method according to claim 6 , wherein, matching the first fingerprint image and the first enrolled fingerprint template comprises:

extracting a fingerprint feature from the first fingerprint image; and

matching the extracted fingerprint feature and the first enrolled fingerprint template.

9. The method according to claim 6 , wherein, verifying whether the second fingerprint image is a valid fingerprint image comprises:

matching the second fingerprint image and a second enrolled fingerprint template corresponding to the second fingerprint recognition mode.

10. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the method further comprises:

outputting prompt information, wherein the prompt information is configured to prompt a user to switch the first fingerprint recognition mode to the second fingerprint recognition mode.

11. The method according to claim 6 , wherein,

the first fingerprint recognition mode is one of a capacitive fingerprint recognition mode and an optical fingerprint recognition mode, and the second fingerprint recognition mode is the other one of the capacitive fingerprint recognition mode and the optical fingerprint recognition mode.

12. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having computer programs for exchanging digital data stored thereon, wherein the computer programs are configured to cause a computer to perform the method comprising:

acquiring a first fingerprint image within a first fingerprint recognition region of the mobile terminal in a first fingerprint recognition mode;

matching the first fingerprint image and a first enrolled fingerprint template;

acquiring a second fingerprint image within a second fingerprint recognition region of the mobile terminal in a second fingerprint recognition mode, in response to detecting a number of consecutive occurrences of failure matching event, wherein the first fingerprint recognition mode is different from the second fingerprint recognition mode, and the first fingerprint recognition region does not overlap with the second fingerprint recognition region;

verifying whether the second fingerprint image is a valid fingerprint image; and

determining that fingerprint is verified when the second fingerprint image is the valid fingerprint image;

wherein when the second fingerprint recognition region is located on a displaying screen of the mobile terminal, the method further comprises: highlighting the second fingerprint recognition region; wherein highlighting the second fingerprint recognition region comprises: highlighting a boundary of the second fingerprint recognition region; flickering the boundary of the second fingerprint recognition region or showing text information in the second fingerprint recognition region.
