Willie Soussillo (Willy Susilo), a professor of computer science at the Wolong University in Australia (University of Wollongong), said the palm vein scan would become a new biometric authentication method for future payments or smartphone unlocking. Thanks to the Apple iphone5s and Samsung Galaxy S5 two smartphones, fingerprint scanning quickly became a mainstream technology, but how does it follow the vein scan PK?

Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono said that fingerprint scanners exist "dark organs", iris and venous scans may replace them in the future, the use of fingerprint payment is not a safe authentication method. Fingerprints can be easily copied from the surface of the object, so it's not safe. One of the main advantages of venous and iris scans is that there is no "imprinting" left. Most of the venous scanners that will appear this year do not require contact with the body, which means that there will be no trace of duplication to prevent fraudulent use.
