in step 102, determining a shielding region consisting of positions of respective light sensors shielded by the fingers after receiving the fingerprint recognition command;
in step 103, selecting part of fingerprint recognition sensors according to the shielding region; and

To sum up, according to the fingerprint recognition method provided in the present disclosure, a fingerprint recognition command triggered by fingers of a user is acquired; a shielding region consisting of positions of respective light sensors shielded by the fingers is determined after the fingerprint recognition command is received; part of fingerprint recognition sensors are selected according to the shielding region; and the selected part of fingerprint recognition sensors are controlled to recognize fingerprints of the fingers, part of fingerprint recognition sensors may be controlled to recognize fingerprints, thus solving the problem of resource waste caused by the fact that all fingerprint recognition sensors on the whole liquid crystal display screen are controlled to recognize fingerprints, and achieving a resource saving effect.
In step 201, acquiring a fingerprint recognition command triggered by fingers of a user.
The fingerprint recognition command is configured to instruct an electronic device to start a fingerprint recognition service to recognize fingerprints. The fingerprint recognition command may be generated by controlling an application program with fingers in a process of using the application program by a user, and then acquired by the electronic device; the fingerprint recognition command also can be acquired by the electronic device through other manners. The present aspect does not limit an acquiring manner of the fingerprint recognition command.
In step 202, determining respective light sensors of which measured brightness values are smaller than a preset threshold value after receiving the fingerprint recognition command; and determining a region consisting of the positions of respective light sensors as the shielding region.
After the fingerprint recognition command is received, the user needs to trigger a touch operation on a liquid crystal display screen with fingers to facilitate the electronic device to recognize fingerprints. When fingers of the user contact the liquid crystal display screen, the fingers will shield ambient light transmitted to the light sensors, at the moment, brightness values of the ambient light measured by the light sensors are smaller, therefore, the electronic device can determine whether the fingers contact the liquid crystal display screen according to brightness values measured by respective light sensors. During implementation, the electronic device can acquire the brightness values acquired by all light sensors, and compare respective brightness values with a preset threshold value, and when a certain brightness valve is smaller than the preset threshold value, it is indicated that the light sensor is shielded and the fingers contact the liquid crystal display screen.
In the present aspect, the electronic device can determine positions of respective light sensors of which the brightness values are smaller than the preset threshold value, and takes a region consisting of respective positions as a shielding region. Please refer to a schematic diagram of the shielding region as shown in
In step 203, detecting whether the light sensors are shielded by the fingers according to the shielding region; and proceeding to step 204 when detecting that the light sensors are shielded by the fingers according to the shielding region.
Since the touch operation may be triggered by the fingers of the user, or by other parts such as a palm of the user, the electronic device needs to exclude the touch operation triggered by the other parts, thus avoiding resource waste caused by starting of a fingerprint recognition service for fingerprint recognition.
During implementation, the electronic device can compute an area of the shielding region, and detects whether the area is smaller than a preset area threshold value, when the area is smaller than the preset area threshold value, it is determined that the touch operation is triggered by fingers; when the area is larger than the preset area threshold value, it is determined that the touch operation is not triggered by the fingers. Or, the electronic device can detect whether the shape of the shielding region is oval, when the shape is oval, it is determined that the touch operation is triggered by fingers; when the shape is not oval, it is determined that the touch operation is not triggered by the fingers Of course, the electronic device can detect whether the touch operation is triggered by the fingers by other manners, which is not limited in the present aspect;
In step 204, selecting part of fingerprint recognition sensors accord to the shielding region.
Since the contact region between the fingers and the liquid crystal display screen is the shielding region, and the electronic device needs to recognize fingerprints of the fingers, the electronic device can select part of fingerprint recognition sensors according to the shielding region to recognize the fingerprints, thus solving the problem of resource waste caused by the fact that all fingerprint recognition sensors on the whole liquid crystal display screen are controlled to recognize fingerprints, and achieving a resource saving effect,
Wherein, the present aspect provides two methods for selecting part of fingerprint recognition sensors according to a shielding region, which are respectively described hereinafter.
In the first determining method, determining respective fingerprint recognition sensors distributed in the shielding region.
Wherein, the electronic device can control respective fingerprint recognition sensors distributed in the shielding region to recognize the fingerprints. At the moment, the electronic device can acquire coordinates of respective fingerprint recognition sensors on a liquid crystal display screen, and then determine respective fingerprint recognition sensors distributed in the shielding region according to the coordinates.
In the second determining method, determining a column number and a row number covered by the shielding region when the fingerprint recognition sensors are in array distribution on the liquid crystal display screen, generating a rectangular recognition region by taking the column number as length and the row number as width, and determining respective fingerprint recognition sensors distributed in the recognition region.
The shape of the shielding region may be irregular, and the electronic device has larger calculated amount when determining the fingerprint recognition sensors distributed in the recognition region, therefore, the electronic device can determine recognition region containing the shielding region in a regular shape, and then acquire coordinates of respective fingerprint recognition sensors on the liquid crystal display screen, and determines respective fingerprint recognition sensors distributed in the shielding region according to the coordinates.
Wherein, when the fingerprint recognition sensors are in array distribution on the liquid crystal display screen, the recognition region may be a rectangular region, since the length and width of the rectangular region are fixed, the electronic device can determine respective fingerprint recognition sensors distributed in the recognition region very easily.

in step 2051, controlling the part of fingerprint recognition sensors to be electrically connected with corresponding data lines; and
in step 2052, outputting fingerprint data collected by the part of fingerprint recognition sensors by the data lines.
After the fingerprint recognition sensors are determined, the electronic device needs to start these fingerprint recognition sensors, so as to recognize fingerprints through these fingerprint recognition sensors, wherein, starting the fingerprint recognition sensors comprises initializing the fingerprint recognition sensors and controlling the fingerprint recognition sensors to be electrically connected with data lines by enabling ends.
During implementation, controlling the part of fingerprint recognition sensors to be electrically connected with corresponding data lines comprises: initializing all fingerprint recognition sensors, and controlling the part of fingerprint recognition sensors to be electrically connected with corresponding data lines by enabling lines, wherein each fingerprint recognition sensor is electrically connected with a corresponding enabling line.
Initializing all fingerprint recognition sensors comprises starting a fingerprint recognition service, controlling all fingerprint recognition sensors to be in an idle state and to wait for a scanning command, wherein the enabling end of each fingerprint recognition sensor is electrically connected with the corresponding enabling line, whether the fingerprint recognition sensors are electrically connected with the data lines is controlled by signals transmitted on the enabling lines, and the data lines are used for transmitting collected fingerprint data.
Please refer to a first schematic diagram of fingerprint recognition sensors as shown in
Please refer to a second schematic diagram of fingerprint recognition sensors as shown in
After the fingerprint recognition sensors are electrically connected with the data lines, the electronic device controls these fingerprint recognition sensors to scan by a scanning command to obtain fingerprint data, and transmits these data by the data lines for fingerprint recognition treatment, wherein, when the fingerprint recognition sensors are capacitance type fingerprint recognition sensors, the fingerprint data are capacitance values.
It needs to be indicated that the step of initializing the fingerprint recognition sensors can be executed at the earliest after step 201, thus causing the electronic device to directly recognize the fingerprints by the fingerprint recognition sensors in an idle state after determining the fingerprint recognition sensors, and improving the fingerprint recognition efficiency; or the step can be executed at latest after the electronic device determines the fingerprint recognition sensors to be subject to fingerprint recognition, thus saving the resource waste caused by too early starting of a fingerprint recognition service.
