Abstract
This application describes, in part, system and methods for controlling access to a device, application or service available through a device. In some implementations, an access request may be received and a three-dimensional representation of an object presented on a display of the device that allows a user to provide a three-dimensional input pattern. The input pattern may traverse multiple surface areas of the graphical representation of the three-dimensional object and in some instances the graphical representation of the object may rotate as the input pattern is received. The input pattern may then be verified and access to the device either granted or denied.
