Device having a camera overlaid by display

A electronic device, comprising:

• a display stack having display pixels;
• at least one camera sensor located proximate to the display stack,
• a processor;
• and
• a memory storing program instructions accessible by the processor, wherein, responsive to execution of the program instructions, the processor configured to:
• determine selected display pixels of the display pixels based on a location of the display stack of the electronic device to a user of the electronic device;
• and
• vary color of the selected display pixels to selectively blur a portion of an image in a field of view of the at least one camera sensor to prevent a biometric algorithm from extracting user facial features based on the location of the display stack to the user.

• and
• a memory storing program instructions accessible by the processor, wherein, responsive to execution of the program instructions, the processor configured to:
• determine an identification of a user of the electronic device;
• determine selected display pixels of the display pixels based on a location of the display stack of the electronic device to the user;
• vary the selected display pixels based on a position of the display stack to a face of the user as the user moves in relation to the electronic device;
• actuate the selected display pixels by varying a characteristic of the selected display pixels after varying the selected display pixels based on the position of the display stack to the face of the user as the user moves in relation to the electronic device to obstruct a field of view of the at least one camera sensor in response to determining the selected display pixels to prevent a biometric algorithm from extracting user facial features.
