Bio Metrics includes skeleton image

In future security checkpoints that are using bio metrics will be also looking at your skeleton, this technology which has been seen in sci fi films could be available to the security services within a couple of years.

There has already been a patent filled for the system that could scan the whole or part of the human body. This image would then be compared to the skeleton images of those of known terrorists, the database would also contain personal data such as name, address, social security number and if you have one passport number.

This device will be portable and will not require direct contact with the person that is being scanned, so this could mean that people are being scanned without their knowledge! Oh what a world we are building for ourselves.
