BECK' S PRIZE

design a key and what it opens

---
title: CETRO
# : 687
agustin otegui from mexico





designer's own words:
What better key than your own body!

The fast flow of information across the different media and the risk of
being lost or misused is one of the biggest worries nowadays.

Cetro contains a digital device which encrypts information (clinical
history, memories, etc) and only lets the owner transfer or see the
information in it.

How it works? The owner holds the key and places his or her thumb in the
middle of the key, it then scans and verifies the fingerprint and unlocks
the encrypted information, so it can be seen or transferred.

The form of the key is based on a scepter, symbolizing the power it has.
