Problems solved by technology

[0004] A drawback of this implementation is that when the user enters the PIN or password, the entered PIN or password may be seen by others
Also, the password or unlock pattern requires a certain complexity in order to comply with security requirements, making the entire unlocking process potentially lengthy and time-consuming
Furthermore, in some cases, a device may store many applications, and it may be tedious to search for a specific application from the desktop or from multiple screen pages

Embodiment Construction

[0046] Some embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which some, but not all embodiments of the application are shown. Indeed, various embodiments of the disclosure may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to those set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will conform to applicable requirements. Like reference numbers refer to like elements throughout.

[0047] Fingerprints have high reliability and have been widely used for security purposes. Gestures provide an effective alternative to directly clicking objects on the screen. The main concept of the present disclosure is to associate each gesture action with a different operation performed on the mobile electronic device. Once the user of the mobile electronic device intends to perform a specific operation such as launching a specific application, the mobile...

Abstract

The invention provides a mobile electronic device and an operating method thereof, wherein the mobile electronic device is provided with a motion sensor, a touch sensor, a microcontroller and a processor. The method includes the following steps. The motion sensor detects a motion and generates motion data in response to the detected motion. The touch sensor detects a fingerprint and generates fingerprint data in response to the detected fingerprint. The microcontroller compares the generated motion data with enrolled motion data, and one of the microcontroller and the processor compares the generated fingerprint data with enrolled fingerprint data, where the enrolled fingerprint data and the enrolled motion data including the first motion data are prestored in the mobile electronic device. When the generated motion data matches the first motion data and the generated fingerprint data matches the enrolled fingerprint data, the processor performs a first action in associated with the first motion data.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to mobile electronic devices and methods of operation thereof. Background technique [0002] Handheld mobile electronic devices such as smartphones have become multipurpose devices as data processing, personal organization, entertainment and communication functions can be integrated into a portable pocket-sized computer system. The versatility of such devices provides users with an increasing variety of applications. [0003] Based on the confidential nature of applications stored in such devices, security mechanisms can be provided to prevent unauthorized access to applications with important or confidential data (eg, e-wallet, email, phonebook, etc.). For example, such devices may automatically lock and enter a low power sleep mode after a period of inactivity. To regain access to the application, the user can wake up the device by pressing the power button or the home button, and an authentication mechanism will be a...
