Seems like a brilliant idea. But few questions come to my mind. 1. Are ECG pattern unique for a person? I believe if they are then they are not as unique as fingerprint. 2. I believe the ECG will change dramatically if a person have a panic attack or abrupt mood changes(ex. under severe stress) or any heart condition development. How do you control that ECG pattern and normalize it? 3. How it will be better than just finger print based authentication? I mean if you can develop a good biometrics based on fingerprint that should be enough. Right? 4. Of course it will have a potential to be used in medical devices where a patient using medical device can use that to lock access to others for the data privacy reason. 5. I will be interested to use it but the price range should be around $50-$60 range (However, it is my personal opinion). Good luck guys. |

1) Research suggests that because of the way your heart is formed, the ECG signal is as unique as your fingerprint, the only question is the ability to extract the relevant information, which we achieve using the latest research.
2) Structural changes to the heart (e.g. heart attack) would change your ECG. For this we would provide 1-time login codes so the person can update the signature. For non-structural changes there are methods for signature normalization (e.g. http://jrnlappliedresearch.com/articles/Vol6Iss4/hosmane.pdf)
3) Most of the fingerprint scanners require a repeated swiping motion, while our method is passive. Good fingerprint scanners are also more expensive that our projected price. Finally, it is a lot harder to spoof an ECG while you leave your fingerprints everywhere you go.
4) Thanks for the suggestion! We will definitely look into that.
5) That is our target initial price. With scale, we will be able to do it even cheaper.
