Device-level sensors, biometrics and embedded processing have arrived. With these advanced technologies, the wallet can be made more versatile, secure and powerful with modern technology built into it. This same approach will be found in a broad range of products from firearms to autos, which will only fire and run if the authorized owner is securely identified and in command. The IT companies have provided more security (multi-factor, out-of-band authentication) but these don't work well because they are neither simple nor obvious. It's now pretty easy to know that "you are you" given enough of the right sensor and biometric information combined with the right data and some local processing.
In the future, it is likely that we are not going to carry around little pieces of colored plastic to make payments; furthermore, we are not going to rely on simple alphanumeric passwords to access our devices and conduct transactions. Lest everyone think the smartphone will save the day, it has a few chronic weaknesses. Power is the most basic one. Consumers expect their keys and wallet to work all the time. Smartphones are not secure or private in the slightest, nor are they likely to become so for quite some time.
