Abstract :
In this paper we describe various ways to encrypt data stored and transmitted through mobile computing devices based on sensors on the device. We describe different sensors including accelerometer, gyroscope, multi touch, GPS sensor etc and describe the encryption and decryption method for touch gestures. A background application on the device is responsible for encoding and decoding data, and used for different kind of applications including file transfers, multimedia, and SMS. Such an application would enhance the user experience and lead to increased security for mobile based data transfers.
