Abstract

This invention disclosures a fingerprint identification apparatus and biometric signals sensing method using the same. The fingerprint identification apparatus comprises: a photoelectric sensor, a light module and an identification unit in which the photoelectric sensor with a fingerprint sensing face is to transform light intensity signals into electronic signals; the light module is to produce test light; the identification unit is electrically connected with the photoelectric sensor, wherein, there are different sensing modes with corresponding actions; in the first sensing mode, the identification unit senses a fingerprint image by the photoelectric sensor; in the second mode, the identification unit senses a spectrum by the photoelectric sensor to determine the blood glucose information. Therefore, this fingerprint identification apparatus can detect the fingerprint and blood glucose at the same time.
