This also enables tracking, monitoring, inventorying, and management of people and things for medical, legal, business, governmental and various other purposes.

A system, apparatus and method utilize a micro electronic device implanted in a person or group of persons, or wearable thereby, to manage a variety of activities, including logging in to an electronic device or system such as a PC or network. The method includes the steps of providing an RF microdevice having an electronic identification code and attaching the microdevice to the user. A PC system is provided including an RF reader and a processor. The user brings the microdevice near the reader, whereby the reader communicates with the microdevice via RF signals, and the RF reader signals the processor to corroborate the identification code. If the processor corroborates the identification code, the processor signals that a successful login has occurred. If the processor does not corroborate the identification code, a login is not confirmed.

A system, apparatus and method utilize a micro electronic device implanted in a person or group of persons, or wearable thereby, to manage a variety of activities. Such micro devices may also be embedded in, incorporated into, or otherwise attached to articles, devices, structures or things to track, manage or monitor such articles, devices, structures or things for geo-location or other tracking, monitoring or management services. The microelectronic devices may be used for geo-location services for agencies responsible for monitoring such person's whereabouts with respect to branches and agencies such judicial and law enforcement agencies. Lastly, the microelectronic devices may be implanted in or worn or carried by humans for using biometric sensors or transducers to authenticate and transmit vital signs and other health information to clinic or other facility personnel. The micro electronic devices may be communicatively connected to a mobile device and the micro electronic devices utilize features of the mobile device such as user interface services, programming services, data processing and storage services, telecommunication services, location services, sensor/transducer services, camera services, clock services, and/or temperature, weather and other services. This also enables tracking, monitoring, inventorying, and management of people and things for medical, legal, business, governmental and various other purposes.

Systems and methods are provided for providing access to secure-access facilities based on pairing of the secure-access facilities with a user device such as a wearable device. A pairable secure-access facility may be a public storage facility or device such as a locker that includes communications circuitry for pairing with the user device. Once paired with the user device, the locker may operate a locking mechanism to lock the locker when the user device is away from the locker and to unlock the locker when the user device is in the vicinity of the locker. The locker may include a beacon for detecting and pairing with the user devices. Pairing the user device and the locker may include entering a locker identifier into the user device to ensure that the intended user device is paired with the intended locker.

An electronic apparatus including a memory configured to store waveform information of a signal received from a user's body, a transceiver configured to receive a signal from an external apparatus using the user's body as a communication medium, and at least one processor configured to confirm whether or not a waveform of the received signal corresponds to the stored waveform information, and perform a predetermined function depending on a confirmation result.

Techniques are described for user authentication based on a signal that is transmitted through an individual's body, and detected using device(s) in physical contact with the individual. A signal, such as an electrical signal or a vibrational signal, may be transmitted from a first device and received by a second device that is in physical contact with the individual. The received signal may be employed to determine a body signature for the individual. The body signature may identify the individual among a population of individuals, given the particular alterations to the propagating signal caused by the individual's physiology. Accordingly, the body signature may be employed as a form of biometric data that is useable to authenticate the individual to access a secure area, log in to a device or an application, or for other purposes.
