    Abstract: Embodiments include apparatuses, methods, and systems including a communication aggregator having a first interface to communicate with a host through a first link based on a first protocol, a second interface coupled to the first interface to communicate with a display device through a second link based on the first protocol, and a third interface coupled to the first interface to communicate with a sensor through a third link coupled to the third interface based on a second protocol. Moreover, the host is to communicate with the display device through the first link based on the first protocol, and the second link based on the first protocol; and the sensor is to communicate with the host through the third link based on the second protocol, and the first link based on the first protocol. Other embodiments may also be described and claimed.

    Abstract: A power-up scheme for a computing system that applies a biometric sensor (e.g., a fingerprint sensor, eye sensor, etc.) to authenticate a user before enabling power-up of the computing system or to resume transition to a power state (e.g., one of the power states defined by the Advance Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI)). Output of the biometric sensor is compared against data of a registered user for a match. The data may include an original copy of an output of the biometric sensor saved in a non-volatile memory (e.g., serial peripheral interface (SPI) flash device). If a match exists, a logic in the computing system will allow the computing system to power-up. In the absence of a match, the computing system will not be powered up. In some examples, battery charging is also disabled if the match is not found.
