Alternative "friendly" captcha

How many unkind words and thoughts have been thrown in the direction of the “curvaceous” captcha. Robots are becoming more OCR ', captcha - more crooked, and typing it even more inconvenient. And yet she lives to protect our world from the influx of robots. Maybe something else already? On www.1clicaptcha.com decided to try. Maybe something really comes out of this ...

The idea is called "One Click Captcha". The name speaks for itself - in order to pass the test of turing on this captcha, it is necessary instead of typing an alphanumeric code to click only once. This is similar to the IQ test, only a five-year-old can pass it. But the robot is unlikely, since at the moment it lacks such a human trait as common sense.

The authors went further and offered the “Zero Click Captcha” option, having combined the click on the captcha with the click on the submit button. You just need to click in the right place on the button.

Another additional feature of the project is the provision of this captcha on a separate host. That is, to use it, you do not need to install anything on your server, but simply link it to your existing forms and use the captcha directly from the website www.1clicaptcha.com . Only one attempt is given for each captcha; the second one will not be counted, even if it is correct. In addition, with the correct answer, the webmaster is provided with information about the time used to fill out the form and the IP of the person to whom the captcha was shown in order to conduct more fine filtering.

PS Necessary clarifications made after some comments.

First, at the head of the corner is user convenience, not protection. Make your project more comfortable, and people will reach out to you.

Secondly, the protection is actually quite high. The first echelon is pattern recognition, which is now easy to pass, and which is not stressed (the figures are primitive and without any attempts at distortion). But as a second tier, the definition of the principle by which one of the proposed options is selected. It is not even the selection itself (comparing a regular pattern with a pattern), but the definition of a pattern. Thus, the second echelon consists of two subtasks, on one of which the entire defense is built.

Thirdly, there are really few options, but here see the thesis “first”. The robot has a 1/9 chance to get, and we have a 8/9 chance to ban its IP.
