Use brain waves to open bank accounts

Canadian researchers hope to use brainwaves to open doors and use bank accounts soon.

Human brain scan

At present, some companies are offering iris recognition systems and many countries want to install this system in biometric passports. But Julie Thorpe, a researcher at Carleton University (Ottawa, Canada) wants to go beyond this idea.

Thorpe hopes to develop the world's first biometric security device that can read the human brain to verify cardholders.

According to Thorpe, most of the major cards, personal identification numbers (PINs) and passwords of security tools allow people to withdraw money from their accounts, access data on their computers or on their computers. Limited access to buildings. The user will simply think of his password.

Thorpe explains that each person's brain waves are different even when they think about the same thing. The brain waves of each person are different as well.

While many people are fooled into losing their passwords, losing or being smart-tagged, the 'password by thought' can also be different as the biometric data stored in the computer uses the image comparison. eyes or fingerprints have been scanned.

Currently, Thorpe is working with security researcher Paul Van Oorschot in Ottawa, Canada to make this possible.
