“…When sensing the heart signal, apart from the technical difficulties due to, for instance, the noise of the signals; missed data during the gathering phase; delays, or; the bearer's movements [80], there are two main aspects to consider when using the heart signal in cryptographic protocols: 1) external alterations: it has been proven that parameters such as HRV can alter the peak detection algorithm [81], and; 2) length of the signal: it was thought that sensors have to gather for about 30 seconds [15,82,83,11] to generate 128 bits token. However, a recent study [84] increased that time to about 60 seconds to generate the same length token.…”
