Tactile Interface
We interact with our mobile devices largely through our fingers. Devices today understand how each of us swipes or slides our fingers across their screens, making new security features possible that were impractical for the desktops we used to bank online. HP's Solour suggests that mobile devices will be able to authenticate user's signatures on their touch screens. User's could sign their names on their touch screens to authorize a mobile payment or an account transfer. The tactile interface also opens up the possibility of fingerprint verification for financial transactions or account logins.
