[darkshark] has shown us an easy exploit, using a 3D printer to fool the Galaxy S10’s fingerprint scanner. The Galaxy S10 is interesting for its use of an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor ...
The faster ultrasonic fingerprint scanner introduced in Pixel 9 improves speed and accuracy, and now it can be used even when the screen is off. Older Pixel models with optical fingerprint sensors ...
As the ultrasonic sensors capture all the fine details of the fingerprint patterns, such as the ridges and valleys in a fingerprint, the scanners offer good protection against spoofing ...
There are at least three common ways to scan a fingerprint: Take a picture of it, sense it capacitively, or sense it using ultrasound. However you do it, you wind up with an image of the print.
