Forget Fingerprints: EyeLock Myris Brings Eye Scanning to Devices
The myris is computer mouse-size device that scans your eye. You plug it into the USB port on your computer, tablet or some other device. Pick it up, flip it over, look at it, and the sensor will immediately scan your eye to verify your identity.Myris is a sleek handheld iris scanner, brings biometric security to home computers. The device plugs into a USB port and takes a split-second video of both eyes, scanning more than 240 points in each. A government-grade encrypted digital signature syncs with passwords stored on Myris, and never on your desktop. Once it verifies a match, it automatically signs the user into accounts through a browser extension. Since no two irises are alike, the chance of a false positive is less than one in two trillion.
Once your eye has been scanned and recorded, Eye Lock's software acts as a password manager. When it's time to log in somewhere, you can just look at the scanner, and the software will use your iris to unlock the password of whatever service you're trying to access. The myris is compatible with Windows PCs, Macs and even Chrome books. It supports up to five different users.
Eye Lock uses video, uses video, not still pictures, to capture an image of your eyes, and delivers throughputs of up to 50 people per minute. No two human irises are alike not in twins, nor even on the same person. False Accept Rate of 1 in 1.5 million for a single eye.Eye Lock generates a unique encrypted code of each iris. Then to authenticate your ID, it matches the encrypted code with your eyes. The scanners themselves simply aren't designed to receive data from a file rather than a live scan. So even if a hypothetical hacker got your scan, they couldn't do anything with it.
