'Implant' a credit card at the fingertips

Hitachi has developed a technology to pay credit by structuring blood vessels in the fingertips.

Hitachi's payment technology is based on the structure of human blood vessels . The technology allows customers to pay for shopping in the store with a fingerprint recognition system. The formation and arrangement of each person's circuits in the fingertips is difficult to fake and is often unique. So, this technology helps to increase the security of the customer. In addition, customers will not need to carry any type of card when shopping.

In order to make this payment, customers will have to register the circuit data at their fingertips with the service provider. When paying they just put their hands on the circuit reader. This special reader adopts infrared technology with LED effect and a special camera will record detailed images in the customer's circuit structure for identification in the machine.

Hitachi plans to test this technology in three months with 200 employees. It is good to go shopping without carrying a card and not worry about losing the card but users will also have to be careful not to let the fingers break or cause the finger to ' disappear '.
