In case this hasn't been posted. December 7, 1999 Burlington, VT ? Biometrics have now come to your local Palm Pilot. Applied Biometrics has announced their new low cost, battery-operated Kryptic Pilot(TM). Company officials announced in a press release that their new product is the world's first (and only) fingerprint identification product capable of addressing the portable security needs of the E-Business, Access Control, Security, Personal Communications and Financial markets. The Kryptic Pilot(TM) attaches to 3Com's PalmPilot(TM) (models III and VII) and, for the first time, enables portable, wireless, fingerprint-secure applications. Applied Biometrics' Kryptic Pilot(TM) has broken the price barrier, while maintaining high performance and small size (3.25 x 3.0 x 0.9 inches). Applied Biometrics has stuffed all of the electronics for fingerprint capture, database storage and identification inside their new product. The company indicates that retail pricing may go as low as $69 and that the Kryptic Pilot is the first in a family of fingerprint identification modules that are PC, Palm, Win CE and Data Bus compatible. With typical use, users may be able to go half year (6 months) without having to change the batteries. The company press release also notes that their new product will remember all enrolled fingerprints, even when the batteries have been removed, for a century. Ron Ohio
