Are you fed up with carrying around keys or key cards? And for those of you who have fingerprint recognition security systems at work or school (or home) – are you finding that you cant get through that door because you like to file down your finger prints?
And how about folks who have voice recognition security systems at work – are you not fed up that you cant get through that door because you’ve been singing that Haruhi tune all night and have a sore throat?

Well be fed up no more thanks to Faceguard IR - a facial recognition system that uses infrared technology to scan your face. Because it uses infrared, it will recognize faces in complete darkness and laugh when somebody tries to put a photo of a infront of the scanner.
Learn more about Faceguard IR at the official site and download the pamphlet to find out more.
Nearly forgot to mention that theres still a 0.001% chance of Faceguard letting in the wrong person…

I'd probably use this if it wasn't so expensive. ^^ seems like a great security system unless you name is michael jackson. ..tired of the fact you can't get into your own room because you just had that new facial surgery? lol! v(^_^)v

iIf it's the real price then I'll pass. It's a great security system but I don,t want to buy it and then someone break it with a rock T.T

Marvn, you're right. You can't have this if you're Michael Jackson ^_^

I didnt notice any price tag and I think its on a per application basis - basically you contact them and they tell you how much it costs dependign on what you want to do.

Lol, you sung the whole song of Haruhi?  Lol.

A face scanner huh?  I would prefer a retinal scanner but this will kinda do.  Cool find Danny.

Awww, C'mon Danny, what's so bad about singing "Bouken Desho Desho" and have people look at you? 

With my luck, once I lose more weight, I'd be locked out of my house because it can't find the right points onmy face.

Well, to be honest I'd rather hump a dead moose than use this "technology". There are so many things that can go wrong with it. Suppose you get into a fight, or an accident and your face is battered up? Also the fingerprint systems are a real scam. Nothing beats the old good LOCK with KEY ! ;) I had a good laugh a while ago when a friend called me and said his friend couldn't get access to his computer cause the face recognition failed and he forgot his password *LMAO*

Hi Danny,
 
Your site is great (Hmmm...I wonder how many ppl have commented the same already but I'll say it again). You have really nice pictures from Wonder Festival 2006 Winter & those are really nice upcoming figures. I was wondering whether could you give titles for the pictures (for example the name of the figure and scale) I would be a nice touch because I browse your site almost everyday and use it for reference when I'm looking for a certain figure to purchase and at many times I dont know the name of the figure. I am not a fan of any specific anime (but I like Gundam). I just collect mecha & figures because they are sooooo nice & detailed. Thanks!

Lock and Key system has been defeated around 10-15 years ago with the bump key(Google), which works better than lockpick guns. Even a normal person can gain access to this bump key and become a lockpicker in a matter of minutes.

I'd say, the classic combination of deadbolts and keypads with fingerprint recognition will be more secure than face recognition.

Tell ya wat... Dnt know why they aint thought of this yet - a gential scanner. i mean... it'd be the most SECURE system to even be used.

I would never buy something like this. All it takes is a detailed picture from your face and they are in... how dumb is that :D

And even if they would find a way to detect that it's just a picture I wonder if it'll let you in when you have a black eye.. :/ It must suck to be left outsie right after you got mugged :D

Wonderful, the only thing that can go wrong is probably when scanning twins.
