Abstract:
Systems, apparatuses, and methods for verifying an authenticity of an electronic device are disclosed. An apparatus includes one or more heat generating components coupled to an electronic device and arranged in a particular configuration such that, when selectively activated, the one or more heat generating components emit thermal radiation in a specific heat pattern that corresponds to the particular configuration and the selective activation. The specific heat pattern is readable by a thermal reading device to obtain information regarding the apparatus.
