my computer locks itself as soon as I
walk away and seamlessly unlocks when I
come back for coffee this isn't a magic
trick you'll be able to do this with a
Windows computer later this unity to
start you just need a Bluetooth equipped
Windows 10 PC in any smartphone open
your settings page navigate to Bluetooth
devices and pair your phone then on the
sign-in settings page scroll down and
activate dynamic lock now as soon as
your phone's out of range your computer
should lock but it's a little buggy and
there's a window of opportunity for
someone to creep on your laptop now the
fun part windows hello face up for this
one you'll need a computer equipped with
an infrared camera like this new surface
book just scroll up on the same sign-in
settings page and pick face recognition
windows will scan your face in 3ds so it
can't be fooled by a flat photo and just
like that
a mere glance at your PC should unlock
it so what if you wear glasses you can
still sign in like a boss just run the
facial recognition one more time
and that's how it's done
