Boston.com: Diebold tests biometric hand geometry recognition

Diebold is testing biometric hand geometry recognition as part of its campus card system.

"WVU has partnered successfully with Diebold since 1995 with the use of the Mountaineer Card system, which allows our students to do a variety of things from purchasing meals at campus restaurants and items at the bookstore, to riding the Personal Rapid Transit System (PRT) and gaining entry to athletic contests," Hardesty said. "This innovative electronic security system for the residence hall and campus recreation center is just another example of how this company is changing the way we do things to make life more secure, convenient and accessible for our students."
