Fujitsu dabbles in palm reading, hopes to bring biometric sensors to tablets

When you consider it, there is no reason that biometric recognition can't provide security on tablets -- well, with the exception of the will for a sensor thin enough to slot on a slate. Fujitsu was at the job, making significant progress since showing off its clunky palm vein reader. The company's latest development at the biometric front is an authentication sensor that measures a minuscule 5mm thick, that's slight enough to be used in tablets. Fujitsu employed its PalmSecure technology for reading users' palm vein patterns without requiring physical contact with the sensor. This super-thin module continues to be within the thick of analysis and development, but it's likely destined to your tablet someday down the road.
