Keys?? Who needs them.

Keeping track of our keys is part of our daily life. We spend time everyday trying to locate our keys. They are always lost, and no matter how much we pay attention to where we left them and try not to lose them they will disappear. It is really strange why always we misplace our keys and spent many hours searching for them especially women’s holding bags. Between makeup, cell phone, paperwork and other stuff in the bag, it takes forever to finds them. Couple of years ago they created a whistle keychain which was supposed to make it easier to locate our keys. That didn’t survive for a long time. So is that going to be the case forever? Thanks to biometrics technology, there is no need for keys anymore..Can u believe it? I didn’t. When I was reading this article, I was totally surprised and shocked at the same time. No more keys anymore… Is it codes we can enter? Wait it’s even better and more secure. We can just use a unique technique: our fingers because our fingerprints are unique. This is what is called Biometrics. That’s really amazing.

It sounds like something from a sci-fi movie, but the idea of replacing your regular lock with one that features fingerprint access is becoming a reality for consumers. It doesn’t look any different from a regular deadbolt lock, but has a scanner built in, hidden beneath the keyhole, where you swipe your finger. This scanner reads “the sub-dermal fingerprint data and converts it into a mathematical formula unique to the user,” and keeps that data intact, even if you cut your finger. Some come with audit trail software, which allows the user to monitor the comings and goings of those whose fingerprints are approved for access. Many also have an override code in case your fingerprint could not be picked up. Prices ranges between $100- $600.

To give u a glance about this lock, here is the la9-3 fingerprint lock. It is a regular lock, with Stand alone, battery operated that can be programmed up for 120 users. The finger pad is visible but has a scanner that enables it to record the “sub dermal data and convert it to a mathematical formula unique to each user, and the data is deep their saved even if your finger is cut...Isn’t it fascinating?

Biometrics locks are not only used for the front doors, they are also handy for replacing passwords. Can you imagine that you don’t have to remember passwords or change them every few months? Laptops come with this biometric software which is built in, or even you can buy the “XMmicro Biometric USB Fingerprint Notebook Laptop Guard”. Even more software as “Safe solution enterprise edition” is open which means that the hardware can be fingerprint or something related to it all enabling it to save your passwords and keep it for u. This is one of the numerous number of gadgets technology is providing every day. It’s giving birth to a new and unique technology our mind can’t believe. I really liked this biometrics lock, and who knows what’s next, maybe we can just say a secret word and the door will open by itself :)
