Biometrics have been around in Sci-Fi movies for years. Only over the last couple of years have we seen a vast amount of standard biometrics being used. The two most common are fingerprints and handprint scans. Eye scans are used, but mostly in the National Defense market. Well now Fujitsu has developed a new form of biometrics. They have developed a security device that uses vein patterns to verify identity
"The company's palm-vein recognition system has been available in Japan for just over a year and has already achieved some notable success. The Bank of Tokyo Mitsubishi, Japan's third-largest retail bank, began installing the system on its ATMs last October as a higher-security alternative to personal identification numbers. About half of the bank's 3,000 ATMs will have the system by September, and other major national and regional banks have also said they're adopting the system. "
