Make your face a password.

[Kushagra93]

Your face is ur password!

Heard this b4.. right... the Lenovo ads...

Now, it's not xclusive... and it's not paidware!

BananaSecurity has launched a freeware application BananaScreen which adds face recognition login to your webcam-enabled Windows computer.

Just your smile, all you need to login... that's what they say!

To use, just install BananaScreen and create a face model. Then set up BananaScreen to lock after a predefined amount of inactivity (or hit Alt-L to lock at any time). Once locked, BananaScreen will keep an eye on faces coming and going in front of the camera. When it matches yours, it immediately unlocks your computer. Kool, right?

Well... yes, to an xtent... not entirely foolproof. It's still a beta app, so no guarantees on safety.

If you're not really worried about the fact that it could recognise a pic of u as urselves and login, like the fool it is, this is a very fun login tool. An advantage though... if your facial login doesn't work for some reason, you can still use your regular password.

One point.... BananaScreen is free WindowsXP download. So MacBoyz & Nixies... sorry 4 now

with your face as your password, hid my advice:
Do not go around flirting with girls when their brother is around....or your pc might not recognise the password

this is great.. and i actually wanted one such freeware for a small college project.. how sensitive is the recognition.. like in some lappies even if there is a small shift in the ace the recogniser doesn recognise... i ll try though.. something is better thatn nothing


thanks a lot

lol.. This subject is interesting. But have already worked in a project which is voice sensitive. But had lots of basic problems in that. If any one could do mimic of another person's voice then easily the security code could be broken. But i have not tried anything of this kind. And let me try out this. A better idea.
