US Patent 11017203 Utilizing sensor data for automated user identification

This disclosure describes techniques for identifying users that are enrolled for use of a user-recognition system and updating enrollment data of these users over time. To enroll in the user-recognition system, the user may initially scan his or her palm. The resulting image data may later be used when the user requests to be identified by the system by again scanning his or her palm. However, because the characteristics of user palms may change over the time, the user-recognition system may continue to build more and more data for use in recognizing the user, in addition to removing older data that may no longer accurately represent current characteristics of respective user palms.
