Abstract: A portable electronic device (900) may include a housing (904), a display at least partially within the housing, a front cover (1000) coupled to the housing and positioned over the display, and a biometric sensor module (918) configured to illuminate an object and capture an image of the object through the front cover (1000). The biometric sensor module (918) may include a first lens (1002) positioned below the front cover, a first light source (1004) positioned below the first lens and configured to project, through the first lens (1002), a dot pattern on the object, a second light source (1006) positioned below the first lens (1002) and configured to illuminate, through the first lens, the object with a flood of light, a second lens positioned below the front cover (1000), and a light sensor positioned below the second lens and configured to capture an image of the object.

Abstract: According to some embodiments, a portable electronic device is described. The portable electronic device includes a housing having side walls and a back wall that define a cavity, where the back wall includes (i) a first section having a first exterior surface, and (ii) a second section having a second exterior surface that is parallel to and vertically displaced from the first exterior surface. The portable electronic device further includes a brace structure joined to the back wall, a trim structure welded to the brace structure, where the trim structure has an external surface that is vertically displaced from the second exterior surface, and a camera module disposed within the cavity and carried by the brace structure.
