Gadgets and Technology   

The unusual and interesting way of biometric authentication of the user was found by group of the German researchers of the Stuttgart university, university of Saar and the Max Planck Institute on informatics. 

The device which has received the name SkullConduct ("Behavior of a skull") is the modified version of clever points Google Glass and distinguishes the person on a skull. 


As have shown researches, the skull of each person reacts to a sound in own way, as allows to identify the user. SkullConduct is equipped with the loudspeaker of bone conductivity on the one hand and the microphone on the opposite side of a font. The lost sound imperceptible for human hearing, passing through a cranial bone, changes, and the sensitive microphone catches the changed sound. The device verifies the received result with early record. During laboratory experiments the prototype of the device identified users with an accuracy of 97%.

So far it is unknown whether there will be this technology walls of laboratory for universal use. However it is worth noticing that the similar device would facilitate to users life, it wouldn't be required to store in the head tens of passwords for gadgets, the websites, electronic mailboxes any more and so on.
