  • Patent number: 9984223
    Abstract: An encrypted mouse system includes an electronic device that may contain passwords for an authorized user and an authorization code of the authorized user. A mouse is provided and the mouse may be manipulated. The mouse is in electrical communication with the electronic device. A scanning unit is coupled to the mouse and the scanning unit may read a thumbprint when the mouse is manipulated. The scanning unit is in electrical communication with the mouse. Thus, the mouse communicates the thumbprint to the electronic device thereby facilitating the thumbprint to be compared to the authorization code stored in the electronic device. The electronic device communicates the passwords to an extrinsic program. Thus, the electronic device logs the authorized user into the extrinsic program when the thumbprint scanned by the scanning unit matches the authorization code.
