Input control using fingerprints

Abstract:

A device may be controlled using a fingerprint input. Data indicative of a fingerprint is received from a sensor. It is determined that the fingerprint is associated with a first finger profile that is usable to distinguish a first finger from other fingers of a user of the device. A user control that is associated with the finger profile is identified. The user control is configured to control a setting of a function executing on the device. The user control is input to control the first setting.
