Android Unlock Pattern To Launch Apps For You

The idea is that you define various patterns that launch specific apps. For example, if you use the 'Z' pattern to unlock your phone, you can set it to launch the dialer app. Once set, whenever you draw the Z pattern to unlock - the dialer will be ready to accept your inputs. Similarly if you use the 'U' pattern to unlock your phone, you can set it to launch camera app. The concept is really simple, but would be quite useful.
