Patent number: 11619367Abstract: The disclosed subject matter generally relates to a lighting device including at least two optical output modules for jointly providing transformable output light. The transformable output light is transformable a diffuse light output and a light output that has higher contrast than the diffuse light. Accordingly, the inventors realized that an enhanced user experience for vehicle occupants is provided by a lighting device that can seamlessly transform its output light between diffuse light to more high contrast light. For example, a vehicle interior component may be illuminated with a diffuse light when it is in one state, e.g. when it is not used. In a second state, when the component is used or intended to be used, it may be illuminated with a high contrast light to provide the user with more helpful assist light.Type: GrantFiled: December 2, 2020Date of Patent: April 4, 2023Assignee: Volvo Car CorporationInventors: Markus Andersson, Stefan Langner

Patent number: 11327238Abstract: A housing for enabling coupling of light from a light source to an optical light guide. The housing allows for the optical light guide to rotate about its axis with respect to the housing and a light source while at the same time maintaining the optical coupling with the light source. Accordingly, it is desirable to couple light from a light source to an optical light guide, where the optical light guide is freely rotatable about its axis. This is obtained by a locking mechanism of the housing where the light source is arrangeable. The locking mechanism includes a circumferential structure adapted to receive at least one radial locking member of the optical light guide. The circumferential structure is configured such that the optical light guide is rotatable about its axis in the locking mechanism while maintaining a spatial relationship between the end portion of the optical light guide and the light source.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2020Date of Patent: May 10, 2022Assignee: Volvo Car CorporationInventors: Stefan Langner, Anders Lennartsson, Markus Andersson, Mattias Johannesson

Patent number: 11308190Abstract: A method for handling biometric templates is disclosed for an authenticating device applying biometric authentication. The method comprises acquiring a set of biometric data associated with a prospect user, and acquiring a decryption key (associated with an encrypted biometric template associated with an enrolled user of the authenticating device) from a key carrying device external to the authenticating device responsive to the key carrying device being in a vicinity of the authenticating device. The method also comprises retrieving, from a storage medium, at least a part of the encrypted biometric template associated with the enrolled user, decrypting the retrieved part of the biometric template using the acquired decryption key and performing an attempt to authenticate the prospect user as the enrolled user based on a comparison between the acquired set of biometric data and the decrypted part of the biometric template.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2018Date of Patent: April 19, 2022Assignee: FINGERPRINT CARDS ANACATUM IP ABInventors: Markus Andersson, Jan Nilsson, Anders Khullar

Patent number: 11216546Abstract: The present invention generally relates to a method for authenticating a user of an electronic device comprising a fingerprint sensor. The method comprises acquiring a sequence of verification images. Estimating, based on the images a first and a second verification force value indicative of a force applied by the object on the fingerprint sensor when the verification images were acquired. A verification image representation and a verification force value forms a verification template for each of the first and second images and forces. Matching the first and second verification template with at least one of a plurality of stored fingerprint enrolment templates in a respective first and second matching step. When the first and second matching steps each results in a positive match between the respective verification template and a respective one of the plurality of stored fingerprint enrolment templates, providing a signal indicating successful authentication of the user.Type: GrantFiled: April 18, 2018Date of Patent: January 4, 2022Assignee: FINGERPRINT CARDS ANACATUM IP ABInventors: Markus Andersson, Fredrik Norrman, Erik Montnémery
