In-display Biometrics and Financial Innovations: This Week's Top Mobile ID Stories

One of them is the most recent evolution in mobile fingerprint biometrics – the in-display fingerprint sensor. Readers flocked to a report on a new Apple rumor suggesting that the tech giant may be planning to implement an in-display version of Touch ID in a forthcoming iPad tablet device:

Also popular was the rumor that Motorola’s Edge S smartphone will also feature an in-display fingerprint sensors. It is perhaps another indication of the prevailing popularity of fingerprint authentication on mobile devices even as facial recognition has risen to prominence in recent years:

And there was also some big news concerning biometric payment cards. France’s BNP Paribas is reportedly planning to launch biometric Visa credit cards nationwide this year, and has already set a price tag for them. The biometric Visa Premier card is not cheap, but it is highly secure:
