Motorola shows off tattoo and swallowable password hardware
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/05/31/motorola_tattoo_pill_authentication/
Regina Dugan – the first female head of DARPA who moved to the Chocolate Factory last year – argued that with our plethora of devices, authentication needs to be simplified. The average user has to sign-on 39 times a day, and it takes them 2.3 seconds a time to do it each time – and that's if you remember the password.
To crack this, she suggests either getting tattooed or using authentication in pill form as a way of saving those precious seconds that are being so wastefully lost. The industry is still stuck with the same login technology that it has used for 40 years, she said, and Motorola has the answer – or at least the partners to provide it.
