Public bug reported:

Hi,

On Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Yoga 3rd Gen and many other laptops there is a
Validity fingerprint sensor with id [06cb:009a]. It is not in the
supported drivers list, but I would love to see it amongst the supported
ones.

Here is a list with some of the models using this sensor:

Someone already began the process of reverse engineering the driver:
