VEHICLE FINGERPRINT BOOKMARK
First Claim
1. A fingerprint bookmark system in a vehicle with one or more configurable interior settings, the fingerprint bookmark system comprising:
- a scanner configured to record a fingerprint from a vehicle occupant such that a fingerprint image showing the fingerprint and duration data for the fingerprint image are recorded by the scanner, the duration data indicating a time value associated with the fingerprint image;
a comparison device coupled with the scanner for determining whether the duration data associated with the fingerprint image exceeds a duration threshold, wherein the comparison device is located within the vehicle; and
one or more processors configured to;
when the comparison device determines that the duration data is less than the duration threshold, initiate a search to obtain a first bookmark for the fingerprint shown in the fingerprint image and to configure an interior setting of the vehicle in accordance with one or more instructions contained in the first bookmark; and
when the comparison device determines that the duration data exceeds the duration threshold, create a second bookmark for the fingerprint shown in the fingerprint image, wherein the second bookmark contains at least one instruction that is different from each of the one or more instructions contained in the first bookmark.

Abstract
Provided in the present disclosure is a fingerprint bookmark system which may be implemented in a vehicle with one or more configurable interior settings. The fingerprint bookmark system may contain a scanner which may be configured to record a fingerprint from a vehicle occupant such that a fingerprint image showing the fingerprint and a duration data for the fingerprint image are recorded by the scanner. The system may contain one or more processors which may be configured to compare the duration data associated with the fingerprint image with a duration threshold. The one or more processors may be configured to initiate a search to obtain a bookmark for the fingerprint shown in the fingerprint image when the duration data is less than the duration threshold. The one or more processors may be further configured to create a new bookmark when the duration data exceeds the duration threshold.

9. A method for configuring interior settings of a vehicle, the method comprising:
-
recording, by a scanner, a fingerprint from a vehicle occupant such that a fingerprint image showing the fingerprint and duration data for the fingerprint image are recorded by the scanner, the duration data indicating a time value associated with the fingerprint image; determining, by a comparison device coupled with the scanner, whether the duration data associated with the fingerprint image exceeds a duration threshold, wherein the comparison device is located within the vehicle; when the comparison device determines that the duration data is less than the duration threshold, initiating a search, by one or more processors, to obtain a first bookmark for the fingerprint shown in the fingerprint image and to configure an interior setting of the vehicle in accordance with one or more instructions contained in the first bookmark; and when the comparison device determines that the duration data exceeds the duration threshold, creating, by the one or more processors, a second bookmark for the fingerprint shown in the fingerprint image, wherein the second bookmark contains at least one instruction that is different from each of the one or more instructions contained in the first bookmark. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13)
