How do they do it??
A common misconception about biometric fingerprint technology is that imagery is stored but it's just not true. Instead, discrete points within the print are identified and stored as data.
It only takes between 16 and 25 of these data points, called minutiae, to uniquely define a print--and the individual who owns it.
the gateway to a world of secure identification and information processing is as close as a fingertip. literally.
