Scientists Narasimha technological University in Singapore have created a special app for Android, reports Rus.Media.

It collects data from the accelerometer, gyroscope, speed sensor, magnetometer and light sensor, and then sends them to the server for analysis. To collect data this application does not need the permission of the user of the device.

The results of the research revealed that the neural network can recognize PIN numbers with precision to 83.7% after 20 attempts. And the 5 most popular device passwords it can guess with a probability of 99.5% at the first attempt.
