A Watch That Locks Your Computer

from the oooh,-fun-toys dept

I’m notoriously paranoid about people looking at stuff on my computer (I’m not sure why as I really don’t have anything to hide) so I think the following PC lock on a wristwatch is pretty cool. If the wristwatch gets a certain distance away from the computer, the computer will automatically lock up. This isn’t the most secure system (obviously there are ways to get by this), but it can keep prying eyes away from your computer while you’re out.
