but you have to type "hunt" quickly" and "er2" at hunt-and-peck speeds, or it will reject.

@foone@digipres.club There was a pen about 30 years ago that was intended for a very similar purpose. It turns out that humans are not that consistent about how their signatures look, but they do tend to be a lot more consistent about the sequence and ratios of pressures and directions of movement. Forgers would precisely recreate the shape but with a different sequence of movements, which would be easily flagged.
