description The present invention provides a pressure based fingerprint image capture device that includes an array of cantilevers or simply suspended bridges, with each pressure based sensor having a cantilever or a simply suspended bridge in contact with a conducting electrode that deforms under the load applied by the localized ridge on the fingerprint, and which provides contact to another conducting electrode thereby closing the electrical circuit, a switch in the simplest form, and providing a "pulse" response from the sensor. In the quiescent state, each cantilever or simply suspended bridge structure contains an upper electrode which forms one part of the switch, while another conducting layer, the lower electrode at the bottom of the well of the individual sensor, forms the other part of the switch. L'invention porte sur un dispositif de capture d'image d'empreintes digitales à piézodétection comportant un réseau de ponts en porte à faux ou simplement suspendus en contact avec une électrode conductrice qui se déforme sous l'effet de la charge appliquée par les crêtes de l'empreinte digitale, elle-même en contact avec une autre électrode conductrice qui ferme le circuit électrique lequel constitue un commutateur sous sa forme la plus simple, qui produit l'émission d'une réponse par impulsion du détecteur. A l'état de repos, chacun des ponts comporte une électrode supérieure qui constitue une partie du commutateur, tandis qu'une autre couche conductrice, l'électrode inférieure située à la base du puits du détecteur, constitue l'autre partie du commutateur.
