"The Technical Research Centre of Finland (VTT) has developed a method to recognise the owner of electronic devices by the way the owner walks thus preventing the unauthorised use of portable devices such as computers or mobile phones," reports eFinland.
"In the method, sensors measure certain features in the person's walk and these are compared to values stored in the memory of the device. If the values differ, the device requests an access code. In trials, the method has achieved a success rate of 90%. VTT is applying for a patent for the solution."
