An example method of indicating to a user that a biometric input was authenticated. The method is performed at a computing system comprising a processor, memory, a first housing that includes a primary display, and a second housing containing a physical keyboard, a touch-sensitive secondary display, and a biometric input device. The method includes displaying, at the primary display, a web page that identifies items for purchasing, and detecting a selection of an affordance displayed on the web page. In response, displaying, on touch-sensitive secondary display, an alert prompting a user to provide a biometric input to the biometric input device, and detecting a biometric input on the biometric input device that is in second housing. In response to detecting the biometric input, and in accordance with a determination that the biometric input has been authenticated, displaying on the display an indication that purchase of the items has been validated.

A control panel for controlling a device comprises a scanning device being a plane surface scanner configured for scanning instantaneously an image of a surface of interest. It also comprises a front panel with a front side surface facing the user and a back side surface facing the scanning device and thus being scanable and at least one controller element mounted in the front panel and having contrast markings at the back side facing the scanner device with respect to a color of other portions of the back side of the front panel so that a state of the at least one controller is recognizable from an optical image of the back side of the front panel.

A key assembly for a keyboard may include a key cap that includes a touch sensor that is communicatively coupled to a control device. When the touch sensor senses a touch event, the touch sensor may send a touch signal to the control device, and when the touch sensor senses an absence of touch, the touch sensor may send a control signal to the control device. The key assembly may further include a switch that is communicatively coupled to the control device and that is movable between a pressed position and an un-pressed position. When the switch is in the pressed position, the switch may send a closed signal to the control device, and when the switch is in the un-pressed position, the switch may send an open signal to the control device. Various other apparatuses, systems, and methods are also disclosed.

The invention relates to a combination of a computer keyboard and an extension unit for providing user input to a computing device, e.g. a computer, wherein the keyboard comprises: a housing; buttons and/or keys held by the housing; an electronic module accommodated inside the housing to convert engagement with a button or key into coded form and to transmit the coded form to the computing device as user input,
