Abstract
An apparatus may include a fingerprint sensor system and a control system. The control system may be configured for receiving fingerprint sensor data from the fingerprint sensor system and for extracting fingerprint data from the fingerprint sensor data. The fingerprint data may correspond to fingerprints of multiple digits of a user's hand. The control system may be configured for providing a progressive enrollment process for the fingerprint data. The progressive enrollment process may involve storing at least some of the fingerprint data and augmenting stored fingerprint data as the user continues to use the apparatus. The progressive enrollment process may involve processing first fingerprint data corresponding to a first digit of the user's hand during a processing time for second fingerprint data corresponding to a second digit of the user's hand. At least a portion of the progressive enrollment process may be performed without user prompts.
