Don’t Use Your Credentials, Use Finger Veins Scans

Did you know that your finger veins, as your fingerprints, are unique? Me neither. That’s why Sony created a new security product: Sony Mofiria.

Even more, the finger veins seem that represents a more effective way to identify people, since there are some -not easy- ways to hack fingerprints . The device will have the following specs:

• Uses two components to get the job done: infrared LEDs and CMOS sensors.
• USB connection.
• Size: 7 x 1,4 x 5,8 cms.
• Weight: 33grs.
• Intended to be implemented not only with notebooks, but cell phones as well.

Sony expects to have devices implemented with this biometric sensor in a few months more.
