Biometric security is taking over from the humble password, from the fingerprint sensor you might use to unlock your phone, to advanced iris scanning – and now there’s a new method in the pipeline: the sound of your skull.

Scientists in Germany are working on a system that can identify the way your skull vibrates in reaction to an ultrasonic signal, because it could be just as unique as your fingerprint. It could eventually be used to prove you are who you say you are when logging into your email, or trying to gain access to the Pentagon.

As Andrew Liszewski from Gizmodo reports, although they only used a small sample size of 10 people to test the device, this new system was able to identify the correct user 97 percent of the time, based on their skull sounds alone.

Of course, to measure skull vibrations you’re going to need some kind of headset or accessory, and the researchers are currently working with a Google Glass-style device to log you in.

Eventually, the required tech could be incorporated into smartphones, so holding one to your head to take a call would be enough to identify you.

The name for the new system is SkullConduct, and it joins various other weird and wonderful biometric security solutions in development, including ones using vein patterns and brain waves. The idea is that these biological markers are much harder to fake, whereas if someone steals your password, you’re pretty much out of luck.

“If recorded with a microphone, the changes in the audio signal reflect the specific characteristics of the user’s head,” the researchers report in the Journal of the ACM.

“Since the structure of the human head includes different parts such as the skull, tissues, cartilage, and fluids and the composition of these parts and their location differ between users, the modification of the sound wave differs between users as well.”

There are a couple of problems to overcome before SkullConduct can become a viable proposition, as Hal Hodson from New Scientist reports.

First, the system needs to be able to cope with background noise (a factor not considered in the current prototype), and secondly, the device currently uses white noise as the trigger sound – further down the line, something less grating would have to be used, like a short musical jingle.

The team from the University of Stuttgart, the University of Saarland, and the Max Planck Institute for Informatics will be presenting details on the SkillConduct at the Conference for Human-Computer Interaction in California in May

What is our mission? Why do we post what we do?

Our mission here is to curate (share) articles and information that we feel is important for the evolution of consciousness. Most of that information is written or produced by other people and organizations, which means it does not represent our views or opinions as managing staff of Stillness in the Storm. Some of the content is written by one of our writers and is clearly marked accordingly. Just because we share a CNN story that speaks badly about the President doesn’t mean we’re promoting anti-POTUS views. We’re reporting on the fact as it was reported, and that this event is important for us to know so we can better contend with the challenges of gaining freedom and prosperity. Similarly, just because we share a pro/anti-[insert issue or topic] content, such as a pro-second amendment piece or an anti-military video doesn’t mean we endorse what is said. Again, information is shared on this site for the purpose of evolving consciousness. In our opinion, consciousness evolves through the process of accumulating knowledge of the truth and contemplating that knowledge to distill wisdom and improve life by discovering and incorporating holistic values. Thus, sharing information from many different sources, with many different perspectives is the best way to maximize evolution. What’s more, the mastery of mind and discernment doesn’t occur in a vacuum, it is much like the immune system, it needs regular exposure to new things to stay healthy and strong. If you have any questions as to our mission or methods please reach out to us at [email protected].
