I doubt they have sophisticated enough position recognition to let you wave them around in a pattern to log in (which is another option). They also can’t hear you, so recognition by voice isn’t going to happen either. That said, though, existing Kindle EBRs (E-Book Readers) don’t have the capability for that.
