Submission + - Brain waves could be the next biometric
galactic_grub writes: NewScientistTech has a story about European researchers developing an EEG-based biometric security system. As a person's electroencephalography (EEG) patterns are defined by the unique pattern of their neural pathways, this could provide a hard-to-forge method of identification. The researchers behind it believe the system could prove useful for high-security access-control, although participants have to sit silently, with the eyes closed, in order to use it.
