Abstract
A method for authorizing an electronic device includes: detecting, with a capacitive touch sensor, a first set of interaction data from an interaction between the electronic device and a capacitively interactive hardware tool; computing a first set of parametric descriptors from the first set of interaction data; transmitting the first set of parametric descriptors to a remote database system; generating, on the remote database system, a first set of identity data from a comparison of the first set of parametric descriptors with a known set of parametric descriptors; and authorizing, in response to the first set of identity data, the electronic device to perform the action.
