Under the wave of digital transformation, intelligent technology is rapidly entering every industry, leading modern life toward greater convenience, efficiency and comfort. Recently, in CCTV News' special report “Accelerating the Construction of Digital China, Injecting Strong Momentum into Chinese-Style Modernization,” WeChat palm payment — an emerging payment method — appeared on screen. This not only demonstrates the convenience of palm payment, but also highlights the positive efforts of domestic technology companies in accelerating the construction of Digital China.

Notably, the WeChat palm-payment devices are supported by optical hardware provided by DEPTRUM, helping the technology spread widely across scenarios and letting users everywhere experience this novel, secure and intelligent mobile payment method.

“Palm payment means no need to manually enter a password, which makes payment more convenient,” one palm-payment user said in the interview. Unlike other payment methods, palm payment offers higher initiative — it does not depend on a phone or network like QR-code or NFC verification, nor is there any behavioral constraint like aligning with a camera as in face payment. Simply extending a palm completes precise and efficient identity verification, greatly simplifying payment and significantly improving user experience.

The fundamental reason palm payment can be adopted at scale is its security. The WeChat palm-payment device uses dual-modal verification, recognizing the user's palm print and palm vein images; dual identification further strengthens security, and the model has passed strict certification by the Third Research Institute of the Ministry of Public Security and the National Financial Technology Evaluation Center (NFEC) — its reliability is recognized by national authoritative institutions.

The 14th Five-Year Plan and the Outline of the 2035 Long-Range Objectives emphasize “building new scenarios of digital life — using digital technology to provide new digital scenarios that meet people's needs for a better life.” The continuous adoption of WeChat palm devices is integrating digitalization into every aspect of life, becoming a new way of smart living — a concrete embodiment of this strategy. Currently, WeChat palm devices are in use at Beijing subway stations, Shenzhen University, 7-Eleven convenience stores, PetroChina gas stations, Supermonkey gyms and many other scenarios, bringing convenience and efficiency to all industries.

Bringing innovative technology into different scenarios to serve daily life has always been DEPTRUM's pursuit. Through its cutting-edge 3D vision and AI technology, DEPTRUM hopes to build an information bridge between smart devices and the physical world, accelerate the deep integration of 3D vision with all industries, establish an Internet-of-Everything digital life, and contribute to the construction and development of Digital China.

The emergence of palm payment is a typical case of the continuous innovation and progress of digital life scenarios. In the future, more and more digital life scenarios will emerge, letting the public enjoy more of the convenient life brought by technological innovation — behind which is the sustained technological innovation, application expansion and active participation in Digital China's construction by domestic technology companies like DEPTRUM.
