Abstract: A display can be modified to be activated remotely with optical signals. A laser diode of one frequency can be used for tracking and targeting, with another frequency used to trigger the equivalent of a touch, click, drag, or other conventional input commands.

Modern capacitive touch screens can be upgraded with a transparent film overlay to provide these capabilities, which has never before been possible. Related systems, apparatus, methods, and articles are also described.

Abstract: Systems and methods securely authenticate an identity of an individual based on a pattern that is traced by the individual. Embodiments relate to prompting an individual with a pattern to trace when attempting to authenticate the identity of the individual during an identity authentication session. Motion-based behavior data that is generated by motions executed by the individual as the individual traces the pattern is captured via a motion-capturing sensor. The motion-based behavior data is unique to the individual and has a low likelihood of being duplicated by an unauthorized individual attempting to fraudulently pose as the individual. The captured motion-based behavior data is compared to previously-captured motion-based behavior data from previous traces of the pattern completed by the individual. The identity of the individual is authenticated when the motion-based behavior data is within a threshold of the previously captured motion-based behavior data.

By means of the technical solution, a problem caused by a mis-touch generated when a touch screen device is held by a hand is solved, and a mis-operation is prevented, thereby improving user experience.
