Fujitsu has announced the flagship ultrabook LifeBook U938 with a proprietary user identification system for drawing blood vessels PalmSecure palm. This is one of the most reliable ways to protect the device, and the company has already agreed with Microsoft on the support of this technology in Windows Hello.

How it works?

The device directs infrared radiation, which is well absorbed by the restored hemoglobin in the blood. When the sensor captures the reflected from the palm of the hand, the image shows a pattern of veins in the form of black lines. It is compared to the saved template, and in case of a match the computer will be unlocked.

What about the characteristics?

Fujitsu LifeBook U938 is equipped with a 13.3-inch Full HD-display, optionally available panel with support for touch input. Inside, Intel Core vPro processors of the eighth generation Core i5-8350U or Core i7-8650U are used, although there is a simpler configuration on the Core i5-8250U. RAM up to 20 gigabytes (16 GB in a slot and 4 GB are uninstalled on the motherboard). The volume of the SSD-drive reaches 1 TB. There are two full-sized USB ports and a USB Type-C (another connector is used for power), an HDMI interface, a card reader and a mini jack.

In some models, work is supported in 4G LTE networks. By default, the fingerprint scanner is used for biometric identification, and the PalmSecure module is offered as an option.
