I remember reading articles in "disclosure journals" published by different companies. My guess is that it was stuff that they didn't really think was worth patenting, but wanted to be safe from others patenting. Haven't seen one of those in a while, and duck-go-go-ing didn't show anything either. I guess nowadays they just patent everything.

You could be right about just patenting everything. There have been suspiciously similar Chinese patents from an open source biometric projects that I was following. Who is going to check prior art in this avalanche of patents?
