  • Patent number: 10586028
    Abstract: An apparatus, comprising a biometric fingerprint identification sensor, the biometric fingerprint identification sensor configured to receive an input from a user, the input corresponding to a-predetermined factor, the predetermined factor comprising a force applied by a finger of the user to the biometric fingerprint identification sensor. A connected computer processor determines a qualitative or quantitative threshold based on the predetermined factor, receive the input from the fingerprint identification sensor, calculate a value of a variable associated with the predetermined factor and the input, and trigger a feedback output when the value approaches the threshold within a margin. A connected haptic feedback is device configured to provide haptic feedback to the body of the user when the haptic feedback device receives the triggered feedback output from the computer processor indicating the value is within the margin of the predetermined threshold.
