Recognition of live object in motion
First Claim
1. A method of identifying a carrier of a portable device, the method comprising identifying a carrier of a device by a signal provided by an acceleration sensor of the device carried by the carrier, the identification and the signal analysis being based on at least one of the following:
- cross correlation, amplitude histogram features, Fourier coefficients, structural pattern recognition.

Abstract
Movement of a living object is measured by a movement sensor carried by one living object at a time for forming one measurement signal per one living object. The measurement signal is compared with a predetermined reference signal which may be measured from a known living object in a similar way. A recognition operation is performed based on the comparison between the measurement signal and the predetermined reference signal, the recognition operation resulting in recognition or non-recognition.
