3D face recognition camera

Canadian company Bioscrypt is making a popular science fiction concept a reality with the world's first 3D face recognition camera.

Instead of logging onto your PC or a network or website with a guessable password, the VisionAccess 3D DeskCam scans your face using infrared and visible light. As it records up to 40,000 different points on your mug, such as the forehead, eye sockets, and nose bridge, the presence or lack of facial hair on separate days makes no impact on identification, while it's claimed the camera can even differentiate between identical twins.

Due out in the second half of this year for around $350 (roughly £180), you can find out more about the VisionAccess 3D DeskCam at the Bioscrypt website.
