Nymi - Security key of the future
Small, fashionable and exceptionally safe, these are the factors that ensure a promising future for Nymi security bracelets.
Recently, a promising security project called Nymi has been officially introduced to the community after more than 10 years of research and development.
Accordingly, this security method will utilize electrocardiography as a base of operation. You may not know that each individual's electrocardiographic factor depends on the location, size and some other physical elements of the heart, so like a fingerprint, this is a unique biometric feature. yes of each person.
In addition, electrocardiograms overcome the disadvantages of fingerprints in that you never leave any trace of it and it cannot be seen with the naked eye.
Nymi will be the next promising security solution after a series of recently proposed new methods such as security tattoos, security tablets .
Nymi basically looks like a bracelet. When you put it on, touching it with the other hand means that you have provided Nymi with a body's own electrical current available to activate the device. Starting from here, Nymi will constantly confirm whether you are its real owner and whether the device you are holding is really yours.
Understandably, Nymi works on the principle of identifying the right objects and identifying programmed gestures available to unlock.
Nymi is also provided with sensors to determine the location of the device owner, so even if you have your password leaked, the bad guys cannot open the device when Nymi determines that the device is too far away from master. Nymi's ability to authenticate and identify is so good that Professor Martin, the project's author, is full of hope that this tool will be widely used in the future with broader areas such as security. , housing, payment .
According to the author, if this product is well received by the market, it can be customized in many different forms such as rings, necklaces, armbands . to match user tastes.
The author of the project also said that Nymi is just the beginning of the plan. From here, in the future, he and his colleagues will try to create a 'super personal' experience , meaning that users will be able to adjust the room temperature, install the washing machine . all based only on gesture recognition and device memorization.
Martin also plans to bring Nymi into high-security areas like wireless payment
At the moment, Martin is trying to convince big and small developers to build applications and devices using Nymi's security method. He said: 'If you are thinking of some big device manufacturer, chances are we are negotiating with them. Nymi is not the first ECG reading device but it will certainly be the best product available on the market. '
Nymi may be an accessory that will come with future phones or tablets if the project successfully convinces the manufacturer.
It is known that Nymi will probably start selling next year at a price of 99 USD.
