Haptic unlocking?
asked 2018-07-08 19:33:42 +0300
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?
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?

Simply put: I want a lock that I can unlock without even looking.
