Abstract: Methods, devices and systems for controlling an active fingerprint sensor area of a fingerprint sensor system are disclosed. In some examples, the one or more active fingerprint sensor area criteria may involve, or correspond to, a security level. The security level may correspond to a data security level, a software application security level, or a combination thereof. According to some examples, controlling the active fingerprint sensor area may involve activating a relatively larger fingerprint sensor area for a relatively higher security level. Alternatively, or additionally, the one or more active fingerprint sensor area criteria may correspond to a fingerprint sensor area used for obtaining fingerprint sensor data from one or more digits involved in an enrollment process, the size of one or more digits used during the enrollment process, the size of one or more digits used for one or more recent authentication attempts, or combinations thereof.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods are provided for ultrasonic fingerprint sensors that are able to be used to detect fingerprints from opposing sides of an apparatus, e.g., a smartphone with screens on both sides of the housing. Some implementations of such sensors may include, for example, two piezoelectric and sensor pixel layer assemblies coupled to a common controller. Other implementations of such sensors may include, for example, a single piezoelectric and sensor pixel assembly coupled with a controller configured to apply a range-gate delay to obtain fingerprint scans from either opposing side of an apparatus. Yet further implementations of such sensors may include acoustic masking layers to spatially filter ultrasonic waves propagating to either side of an apparatus.

Abstract: According to one general aspect, a non-transitory computer readable medium includes instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause a computing device to read a string of a log file for an application, where the log file comprises multiple strings of log data, compare the string to signatures stored in a memory to find a matching signature, where each of the signatures is encoded with a signature identifier (ID), determine a deviation between the string and the matching signature, encode the string with the signature identifier (ID) of the matching signature and the deviation, and transfer the string to a destination computing device using the signature identifier (ID) of the matching signature, the deviation, and a timestamp of the string.
