Abstract
In a verification method for use in an electronic device, a user input is received and a biologic feature data is captured while the user input is received. Then, the electronic device is prohibited from performing an operation corresponding to the user input based on a determination that the biologic feature data does not conform to a reference biologic feature data.
Claims18
A verification method for use in an electronic device, the method comprising:
- (a) receiving a user input;
- (b) capturing a biologic feature data while receiving the user input;
- and
- (c) prohibiting the electronic device from performing an operation corresponding to the user input based on a determination that the biologic feature data does not conform to a reference biologic feature data.
An electronic device, comprising:
- an input module, configured to receive a user input and capture a biologic feature data while receiving the user input;
- a determining module, coupled to the input module, configured to determine whether the biologic feature data conforms to a reference biologic feature data;
- and
- a control module, coupled to the determining module, configured to prohibit the electronic device from performing an operation corresponding to the user input when the determining module determines the biologic feature data does not conform to the reference biologic feature data.
A computer-readable non-transitory medium having stored thereon instructions, which, when executed by a processor in an electronic device, cause the processor to perform operations of:
- receiving a user input;
- capturing a biologic feature data while receiving the user input;
- and
- prohibiting the electronic device from performing an operation corresponding to the user input based on a determination that the biologic feature data does not conform to a reference biologic feature data.
