Abstract

A method of initiating a calibration operation of an optical fingerprint sensing device comprising an array of photosensitive elements for capturing a fingerprint pattern, the method comprising acquiring information indicative of a change of an environmental parameter influencing the operation of the fingerprint sensing device; and if the change is larger than a predetermined threshold value, performing a calibration operation of the fingerprint sensing device. There is also provided a fingerprint sensing device configured to perform the method, and a consumer electronic device comprising such a fingerprint sensing device.
