Abstract: The invention provides a device and a method for frequent verifications of the identity of a user performed during a long session of client-server communication by secure exchange of keys between the client and the server. The device is a computer mouse with embedded camera and embedded microphone. The camera is used to make pictures of a user's palm; the microphone is used to register a sound of user's pulse. The method has zero privacy leakage because the user is represented at the server by an array of random numbers, which have nothing to do with his biometric data. The security of the system is difficult to break because the exchange keys are different on each request/response.

Abstract: A touch sensitive device can be capable of detecting signals generated by a stylus and correcting the detected stylus signals for effects due to noise present on the device. In one example, signals are taken from one or more electrodes that are a pre-determined distance away from an electrode in which a stylus signal is detected. The pre-determined distance can be empirically determined such that a noise estimate can be generated such that the electrodes have a higher probability of containing only noise that is highly correlated to the noise present on a detected stylus signal. The generated noise estimate is then subtracted from a detected stylus signal to reduce the effect of noise on the stylus signal.
