Good Vibrations Hacking Motion Sickness on the Cheap
Tottenkoph explores good vibrations hacking motion sickness on the cheap at DEF CON 17, examining hardware-security and practical defenses.
Summary
Architecture and Background
Good Vibrations: Hacking Motion Sickness on the Cheap Tottenkoph consultant, crypto-fiend, hacker, and awesome chix0r Motion sickness has been an issue since man learned how to travel by means other than by foot, with the earliest recorded cases dating back to ancient Greece.
Vulnerability Analysis
Although the problem has existed for such a long time, there has been no documented case of a cure for all forms and severities of motion sickness and the most common way to relieve people of the symptoms that go along with motion sickness involve taking drugs.
Exploitation and Demonstrations
In this presentation, Tottenkoph will give an overview of what causes motion sickness as well as introduce a set of devices that will help lessen the severity of the symptoms that can be made easily.
Remediation and Defensive Strategies
Tottenkoph: consultant, crypto-fiend, hacker, and awesome chix0r. She started with hardware modding and PC repair stuff until the wonderful world of cryptography and open networks was stumbled upon. Tottenkoph is currently doing school and projects full time. For copies of the slides and additional materials please see the DEF CON 17 Archive here:
