AuthenTec sensors included in new Fujitsu tablet

Tuesday, August 2, 2011

AuthenTec has announced its AES2660 smart sensor has been incorporated into technology developer Fujitsu’s new STYLISTIC Q550 tablet computer.

Further, the sensor, which has been embedded onto the back of the tablet and runs off the Microsoft Windows 7 operating system, offers one-touch security that eases its use to enhance security for mobile computing. Among the reasons AuthenTec’s sensor was deemed good fit for Fujitsu’s needs was the low-power and low cost for integration as well as its many packaging options. [end]
