Hello Rohyt, Last few articles on biometrics I've read claim they all can be fooled, as much as up to 70% of the time, some just needed hot air blown onto them, others worked with gummy bear lollies, somehow I doubt I'd want to fork out a lot of money on something so dodgy ;)
what's worst is the false hit ratio, something like 70,000 people a year going through an airport the size of LAX, would be falsely matched as bad guys... -- Best regards, evilbunny mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.SydneyWireless.com - Exercise your communications freedom to make it do what you never thought possible...
