Patent attributes
A method for authentication is provided. The method includes storing, by a first electronic device, first path information in a memory. The first path information includes data representing a first path of input on a touch interface associated with the first electronic device. One or more first portions of the first path information are communicated to a second electronic device. One or more second portions of second path information are received from the second electronic device. The one or more second portions are compared to the first path information. The second electronic device is authenticated based on similarity between the one or more second portions and the first path information. The method may allow for separate authentication to be performed by each device.
