Hi all: Researchers at Stanford have created a new secure input system system that watches your eyes scan a visual keyboard to determine what text to input into secure fields, such as a password field or an ATM PIN.
The benefits of such an approach come chiefly from defeating two common ways of snagging PINs and passwords: keylogging and good old-fashioned over-the-shoulder snooping, also known as "shoulder surfing." Take a look at the 'gaze tracking system' at http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20070826-keyloggers-and-spies-beware-eyepassword-lets-you-eyeball-your-login.html There is also a research paper available at http://www.stanford.edu/~talg/papers/SOUPS07/abstract.html thanks Saifi.
