Abstract
A password input and identification system includes a one-button password input component and a controller. The one-button password input component generates a series of trigger signals in response to a series of triggers that correspond to a series of user-input digits. The controller determines a value of each of the user-input digits by counting a number of the trigger signal(s) that correspond(s) to the user-input digit to serve as the value of the user-input digit. The controller compares the user-input digits with the predetermined password after the input of the user-input digits is finished, and performs a predetermined action when the user-input digits match the predetermined password.
Claims15
A password input and identification system comprising:
- a storage unit storing a predetermined password that has a series of digits each being greater than zero;
- a one-button password input component configured to generate a series of trigger signals in response to a series of triggers that correspond to a series of user-input digits, each of the user-input digits corresponding to at least one of the trigger signals;
- and
- a controller coupled to said storage unit for reading the predetermined password, and to said one-button password input component for receiving the trigger signals;
- wherein said controller is configured to perform a password identification procedure in which:
- said controller determines a value of each of the user-input digits by counting, for each of the user-input digits, a number of the at least one of the trigger signals that corresponds to the user-input digit and that is received from said one-button password input component to serve as the value of the user-input digit;
- said controller compares the user-input digits with the predetermined password after the input of the user-input digits is finished, and
- said controller performs a predetermined action when the user-input digits match the predetermined password.
A password input and identification method, comprising:
- by a one-button password input component, generating a series of trigger signals in response to a series of triggers that correspond to a series of user-input digits, each of the user-input digits corresponding to at least one of the trigger signals;
- by a controller, receiving the trigger signal from the one-button password input component;
- by the controller, performing a password identification procedure that includes:
- determining a value of each of the user-input digits by counting, for each of the user-input digits, a number of the at least one of the trigger signals that corresponds to the user-input digit and that is received from the one-button password input component to serve as the value of the user-input digit;
- comparing the user-input digits with a predetermined password after the input of the user-input digits is finished;
- and
- performing a predetermined action when the user-input digits match the predetermined password.
