What does it take to be ‘human enough’ to pass a CAPTCHA test, and what are CAPTCHAs really for? Ticking boxes. Deciphering blurry letters. Clicking on every bus. Current CAPTCHAs often fail people if they lack particular cultural context or use assistive technologies such as screen readers or gaze trackers, effectively locking them out of parts of the internet.
Visit our stand for a live demo that reveals what happens when you’re ‘captcha’d’ by your favourite websites, and explore our proposed solution for preventing bots without judging people.
