It's clearly stated "In addition, this technology can work through glass and sapphire cover lenses, along with metal and plastic casings." So it depends what kind of display you're talking about. Black/Gold and Blue/White display? Nono
OLED, most probably, because it's just the thin display layer. LCD, more difficult, because it consists of at least two layers. (thick backlight, thin display)
The phone manufacturers should make interesting use of this sense-id, lets see who comes first, i think it will take 1-2 years for it to appear in many phones as phone design timelines won't allow such integration within 6 months time.
