I would love to build something, my programming skills are to put it mildly… well… Rubbish, but if you were willing to help that would be wonderful! I really like the idea of using the accelerometer as one layer of security, because there is no situation where I'm going to be the one who's picking up my laptop! I think it could only be one part of the overall though, because if they don't pick it up it would still be completely open. I've tried facial recognition software, including the one you linked to but so far haven't found one that is reliable enough; there were far too many false positives and for a large chunk of the time it wouldn't recognise my face at all. In theory though, reliable face recognition would be a great solution.
