Human
Presence
Experiment

v0.1 — HUMNLABS Research

Can interaction-derived signals contribute to confidence in human presence — without requiring identity, biometrics, or personal data? This experiment explores that question.

~3 minutes 3 signals No identity required No data transmitted

Before you begin

  • Behavioral signals only We observe timing, movement, and rhythm — not biometrics, not identity. No persistent data is created about you.
  • Fully local processing All analysis runs inside your browser. Nothing is sent to any server. This session leaves no external trace.
  • Estimates, not proof The result is a probabilistic confidence estimate. It is not proof of humanity, not an identity claim, and not a guarantee of any kind.
01 Reaction Timing — Signal 1 of 3

Click the target the moment it changes to NOW! — 3 rounds. Respond naturally, at your own pace.

Round 1 of 3

02 Movement Analysis — Signal 2 of 3

Move your cursor (or finger) freely inside the area below for 5 seconds. Keyboard users: use WASD or arrow keys to move the drawing cursor.

Estimated Confidence of Human Presence

Confidence is not certainty.

This estimate applies only to this session.

Behavioral confidence derived from interaction patterns only.

This score does not prove that a human is present.
This experiment estimates confidence only.

Privacy & Data Protocol

No identity collected No accounts, KYC, or biometric scanning required.
No personal data stored No cookies, storage, or logs are created or saved.
No data transmitted Absolutely no telemetry or credentials are sent to servers.
Browser-only processing All calculations execute strictly within local JS memory.

Research note: This score is not proof of humanity. It is a probabilistic confidence estimate derived from behavioral signals observed during this session only. It has no legal, commercial, or identifying significance. No data from this session is stored or transmitted.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this verify identity or measure biometrics?

No. This experiment measures transient interaction patterns during your active session — such as reaction timing, cursor movement consistency, and typing rhythm. It does NOT ask for, collect, or inspect your identity, credentials, or biometric profiles. No behavioral profile or historical data is ever compiled.

Does this prove humanity or guarantee security?

No. The overall score is a probabilistic confidence estimate based solely on signals observed during the current session. It carries no legal weight, certification status, or guarantee against sophisticated automation. Scores represent confidence levels rather than absolute proof.

How is privacy protected and how does browser-only processing work?

All signal collection and scoring algorithms run completely in your browser's temporary memory. No data is transmitted to remote servers, written to cookies, or stored in local browser storage. Refreshing or leaving the page immediately discards all transient state and redirects to the Welcome screen.

Why is this an experimental demonstration and what are its limitations?

HUMNLABS is an exploratory research initiative investigating privacy-preserving human presence signals. Current limitations include sensitivity to input hardware differences, touch screen variations, and potential overlap with advanced automation tools. The methodology is continuously evaluated as an open research demonstration.
