    摘要: A system for performing authentication of a first user to a second user includes the ability for the first user to submit multiple instances of authentication data which are evaluated and then used to generate an overall level of confidence in the claimed identity of the first user. The individual authentication instances are evaluated based upon: the degree of match between the user provided by the first user during the authentication and the data provided by the first user during his enrollment; the inherent reliability of the authentication technique being used; the circumstances surrounding the generation of the authentication data by the first user; and the circumstances surrounding the generation of the enrollment data by the first user. This confidence level is compared with a required trust level which is based at least in part upon the requirements of the second user, and the authentication result is based upon this comparison.

    摘要: A system and method for using a relief object image generator for cursor control, computer access control, and operational parameter control is disclosed. The system includes a relief object image generator, a sensor array, an image processor, and a memory. The relief object image generator generates images of relief objects, such as fingerprints, brought in proximity of the exposed surface of the image generator. The image processor receives the image from the sensor array, processes the image, and compares the resulting descriptive information to stored information corresponding to authorized users. If a match is found, the user is granted access to the computer. The image processor may also process the image to determine image movement or the image's presence or absence. Detected movement is used to generate directional signals while the presence and abserice of the image is used to generate highlight and select signals. These signals conform to those generated by known mouse devices so the system of the present invention can replace a position variable device in the keyboard of a laptop or other portable computer without sacrificing functionality for the system. Other uses of the system disclosed herein include control of operational parameters for a device such as brightness and contrast for a monitor and the transmission of relief object images to remote sites for authentication of a user.

    摘要: An active pixel imaging system and method to generate an differential output signal consisting of the differences in a viewed image between adjacent detected flames. A buffered electrical charge storage capacity of the active pixel sensor is utilized to provide a system with reduced complexity and hardware requirements. In the imaging system, when a particular active pixel sensor is activated it generates a voltage signal corresponding to a previous frame's detect light intensity before the pixel is reset to generate a voltage signal corresponding to a present frame's detected light intensity. A differential output circuit is used to generate a differential output signal based on these two generated voltage signals.

    摘要: A novel family of adiabatic dynamic logic gates can have power*delay products at least an order of magnitude or more below that which was possible in previous families of logic gates. No complex circuitry or unusually configured devices are needed to implement this logic family. In particular, this logic family requires fewer devices and less area per logic gate as compared with ordinary CMOS logic circuitry. This is unlike previous reversible logic proposals which required large numbers of transistors per gate. This logic circuitry can operate from very low supply voltages and need not be optimized for a particular voltage. This logic does not suffer from crowbar currents usually found in prior circuitry such as CMOS logic. Logic levels are regenerated at nearly every stage unlike some previous schemes which reduce energy dissipation only by sacrificing logic levels. At each stage in a calculation, this logic recovers a substantial amount of the energy used to perform the calculation and returns it to the power supply.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a fingerprint sensing device comprising a planar array of closely-spaced capacitive sense elements. When a finger is placed in close proximity to the sensing device, the capacitive sense elements measure a capacitance between the finger and a single capacitor plate in each sense element. This is accomplished by precharging each capacitor plate, and then using a known current source to remove a fixed amount of charge from each capacitor plate. The measured capacitance varies as a function of the distance between the capacitor plate and the finger surface. Thus, a capacitance measurement allows the distance between the capacitor plate and the finger surface to be determined. Distance measurements across the array of sense elements are combined to produce a representation of the pattern of ridges on the finger surface which comprise a fingerprint. After a fingerprint is acquired, the quality of the fingerprint is evaluated, and if necessary, a gain parameter for the sense elements is iteratively adjusted until a satisfactory fingerprint is acquired.
