Haptic unlocking?
Would it be possible to create a locking system that relies only on haptic (non-visual) feedback?
Could that haptic unlock system give fast access to functions like camera, media playback controls, et cetera?
We have moved to a new Sailfish OS Forum. Please start new discussions there.

Could you please elaborate? Haptics is as I understand it in this context the feedback the device gives the user with short vibrations, but how would that be used as a lock?
luen ( 2018-07-08 23:29:32 +0300 )editThe vibrations would simply mark that somthing has been done while unlocking. A similar thing happens when pulling down a menu in Sailfish OS.
Simply put: I want a lock that I can unlock without even looking.
vattuvarg ( 2018-07-09 01:10:45 +0300 )editOK, I start to see the why, but the how is still quite vague. Do you have some concrete suggestion to how it would look or work?
luen ( 2018-07-09 09:07:00 +0300 )editMultitouch combined with direction would be one way. Threefingerleft, onefingerup and twofingerdown.
vattuvarg ( 2018-07-09 13:05:07 +0300 )editSwiping from different directions might work too. Infromtop, outatbottom and infromleft.
