Oki Japan Bring Iris Scanning to Existing Cellphones

Oki Japan has developed software that brings iris recognition security to existing cellphones, reports Gizmodo.

"Before now, biometric security has meant either hugely expensive military systems or cheap, novelty peripherals.

The software can be used to add another layer of security on any device that has a camera of at least 1 megapixel and is claimed to only give one false positive for every 100,000 scans."
