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: A portable electronic device (900) includes a housing, a front cover defining a front side of the portable electronic device, a display stack (1102) below the front cover and comprising a plurality of display layers configured to produce a graphical output in a display region (902) of the display stack, the graphical output visible through the front cover, and a light sensor module (922) positioned at least partially within the housing and coupled to the display stack (1102) in the display region. The light sensor module (922) may be configured to receive ambient light passing through the front cover and through the plurality of display layers and, while a blanking interval (1122) is positioned over the light sensor module (922), produce an output corresponding to the received ambient light, the portable electronic device (900) configured to determine an ambient light value based at least in part on the output from the light sensor module (922).

Abstract: A portable electronic device (400) may include a housing (404) having a wall (407) defining an opening in the housing and at least a portion of four side surfaces of the portable electronic device (400). The portable electronic device may further include a display at least partially within the housing, a front cover (402) positioned in the opening in the housing and over the display, the front cover defining a front surface (432), a peripheral side surface (436) extending from the front surface (432) and at least partially surrounded by the wall (407) of the housing, and a notch (406) that, together with a portion of the wall of the housing, defines an acoustic port (401) of the portable electronic device. The electronic device (400) may further include an acoustic port cover (405) positioned at least partially in the acoustic port (401) and a speaker at least partially within the housing (404) and configured to direct sound through the acoustic port cover (405).
