    Abstract :

    In this project, we intend to provide a solution for authentication of files or applications in Laptops or PCs. The Leap Motion sensor will be used for uniquely identifying the genuine user and grant him access to the system. The different existing methods of authentication have their own pros and cons. The Leap sensor is a camera based sensor which will capture the hand geometry and gesture of the user and store it. The gesture decided by the user at first, known as the Leap password, will also vary from person to person thus ensuring that the stored details are unique for every person. This will help the authorized user to access his system without the fear of an intruder cracking his password or gaining access by using the same gesture. The sensor will check the details of the person accessing the system such as dimensions of the palm and finger. If they match with the one stored by the sensor, the user is granted access to the system. This system will thus ensure that the files are not tampered or accessed by any other person except for the owner of the PC or laptop.
