Talk: Biometrics

Since September 11th, Biometric technology has made huge strides because of an increasing need for security on all levels, especially identifying outside visitors to the US. Beyond that, the US Government has been toying with the idea of a Biometric National ID Card, Biometric Passports, Biometric Licenses, and Biometric Visas for visitors.
