NEXT Biometrics, the world leader in advanced high-security fingerprint sensor technology, has signed an agreement with a world leader in the Smartphone Ecosystem for the company´s new display technology.

In January NEXT presented a plan to use the company´s patented technology in the smartphone industry. The R&D department is developing a way to use fingerprint sensor technology on the full screen of a smartphone, a long-sought-after innovation in the mobile industry. Since then, this potential innovation has garnered substantial interest from key industry players, confirming the strong market potential. However, specific customer engagements remain confidential.

“Initial feedback from select industry leaders underscores the groundbreaking nature of this technology and its potential to drive transformative change in the biometric and display industry,” said Ulf Ritsvall, CEO of NEXT. “There will be ongoing discussions and evaluations with potential partners and customers.
