New Technology Requires Only A Few Steps To Identify Identity.

A new technology can identify a person's identity through an insole.

According to foreign media reports, with a pair of shoes with high-tech shoes, a few steps can be used to determine a person's identity. It will soon become our new key card and computer code, and even allow the doctor to judge the time of Alzheimer's disease.

This technology integrates body and biological behavior recognition techniques such as measuring the shape of a person's foot and walking gait.

Gray explains: "everyone's foot shape and walking gait are unique."

An algorithm combines this information to create an autonomous ID and stores it in a tiny chip on the insole.

Gray said: "even users do not know what this characteristic is ID".

This ID has many uses. For example, when you are away from the doorway, you can use it to open your door.

He said: "this does not require users to remember, knock, touch anything, and do not need a backstage system to integrate these real biological information".

He began the study in 2007, inspired by the war in Iraq, when Iraqi defected soldiers walked into a base wearing American uniforms and kidnapped American soldiers.

This technology is more secure and privacy compared to whether it can enter a highly secure area by fingerprint or eye identification.

Gray said, "if your thumb is the only credential to enter a door, the enemy can completely cut it down in war."

Autonomous

In July this year, ID worked with Carnegie Mellon University's biometrics and identity automation laboratory to identify and fine-tuning the technology.

The lab receives $1 million 500 thousand annually from the fund.

The team will also study the potential application of the technology in disease diagnosis, which can be used as a tool for detecting early warning signals of diseases, such as Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease, which can affect our way of walking.

Savvides explains: the chip in the insole can detect gait changes in a few weeks ahead of time.

He said: "we haven't started the application of this technology. Once we start, we will have the possibility of opening a new world."
