From Ingrained Security Tattoos to Eye-Scanning Phone Locks
Laura McQuarrie — June 18, 2013 — Tech
Securing personal data is extremely important in the digital age, and futuristic access methods are making them more accessible with two things that are always on hand -- your own body and your smartphone.
Technologies like retinal and fingerprint scanners as well as facial recognition software has been implemented in devices for several years now, but sci-fi concepts are coming to life with technology that is integrated directly into one's body. This includes products like tattoos encrypted with passwords and consumable pills that are capable of unlocking devices.
For some, cell phones are as important as limbs. These do-it-all devices are being given even more power with the ability to unlock doors and devices by picking up on personal identifiers like mannerisms and drawing styles.
