    Abstract: Keyset fingerprint sensors integrated within a keyset of an input device are described herein. A sensor key having an integrated fingerprint sensor is included within an arrangement of keys rather than being provided as a separate or external component. The fingerprint sensor operates to capture fingerprint data and initiate recognition processing responsive to actuation of the sensor key. In implementations, the cover includes a cut-out exposes the underlying fingerprint sensor so the fingerprint sensor is visible through an opening in the surface the key. Alternatively, the cover forms a surface designed to conceal the underlying fingerprint sensor. In this approach, the sensor key matches other keys within the arrangement of keys, such that the sensor key “blends-in” and is not visible from the surface of the key. In implementations, the sensor key includes a rigid PCB layer having fingerprint sensor componentry mounted to the PCB layer.
