Motorola's Latest Innovation: A Rollable Phone with Multi-Point Under-Display Fingerprint Unlock

Motorola has been granted a patent (No. 12135587B1) by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), showcasing a rollable phone with an under-display fingerprint sensor. The most notable feature is the inclusion of multiple fingerprint sensors under the screen, enabling users to unlock the device from anywhere on the bottom of the screen. This feature is particularly forward-thinking, especially considering its integration into a rollable device.

The patented rollable phone resembles the Rizr prototype unveiled by Motorola at MWC2023. It can seamlessly switch between a 5-inch and 6.5-inch display, allowing users to adjust the screen size based on their needs. The phone offers three different modes: a compact 5-inch mode for one-handed operation, an expanded 6.5-inch mode for video viewing and web browsing, and a transitional mode between the two, enabling users to adjust the screen size as desired.

The multi-point under-display fingerprint unlock technology provides a more convenient unlocking experience for users. Regardless of the finger placement on the bottom portion of the screen, the device can be easily unlocked. This technology is crucial for rollable phones as it effectively solves the issue of finding the fingerprint sensor when the screen is expanded or contracted.

It is important to note that this phone is currently in the patent stage, and Motorola's actual production plans remain uncertain. However, this patent demonstrates Motorola's commitment to innovation in the smartphone market. We may see more rollable phones equipped with multi-point under-display fingerprint unlocking technology in the future. IT Home will continue to follow this development.
