ABSTRACT:
One embodiment of this invention addresses the use of biometrics for accessing a touch screen keyboard on a tablet personal computer (PC), and ensuring security if the PC is left unattended. The core idea is to assign biometrics to soft keyboards without the use of a physical keyboard. In this example, every key on the keyboard will be assigned a biometric fingerprint associated with the corresponding finger that would type it. When a user types, a portion of its fingerprint touches the keys. By storing the portions and assigning the portions to the soft keyboard, it is ensured that every key typed is associated with the corresponding key fingerprint portion, thus ensuring maximum biometric security. In addition, the keystroke delays and word delays can be recorded and compared with previous data for added security.
