Fujitsu’s PalmSecure takes high-speed, contact free biometric readings

This next item should be music to the ears of security professionals, fans of biometric devices, and germophobes alike. Fujitsu has just announced a new palm vein authentication device — one that’s being touted as the world’s fastest, and the first that works without the user actually touching the device. Unlike past implementations of this technology, which moved at a comparative snail’s pace, PalmSecure works in as little as one millisecond. We can think of a number of places where this sort of thing could be particularly useful, from top secret lairs housing doomsday devices to anyplace where people might not be washing their hands as often as they should be (we really hate that). Despite its speed, Fujitsu insists that this bad boy performs with the same level of accuracy as its slow moving brethren. More pics after the break.

Bluetooth 3.0 to use WiFi for high-speed file transfers

Sounds like the Bluetooth 3.0 announcement on April 21 is going to finally usher in the era of high-speed short-range data transfers — as previously hinted, the new spec will actually negotiate a quick’n'dirty ad-hoc WiFi connection between devices if it needs to move bits in a hurry, and then turn off the spigot to save power when it’s done. The idea is to leverage the speed of WiFi while keeping power usage low, and we’d say it’s a pretty trick solution, since most Bluetooth-capable devices also have WiFi radios (cough, Storm). Since the ad-hoc WiFi connection is managed over Bluetooth, no actual wireless network is necessary, and the switch will appear seamless to the user — except for the sudden increase in data transfer speeds. Yeah, it’s definitely slick stuff — we’re looking forward to seeing the first devices in action next Tuesday.

Australia’s A$43 billion broadband project: up to 100Mbps in 90% of homes and businesses

In what he’s calling “the single biggest infrastructure decision” in the country’s history,” Australia Prime Minister Kevin Rudd’s announced an A$43 billion (US $30.6 billion) project to create a nationwide high speed broadband network. The goal’s to get 90 percent of homes and business up to 100Mbps speeds with fiber optic connection, with a less impressive 12Mbps wireless / satellite for the rest. Up to 49 percent of the funds will be from the private sector; the government will initially invest A$4.7b, while A$20b will come from a national infrastructure fund and the sale of bonds. The venture’s expected to take seven to eight years, and Rudd said the government intends to sell off its stake after five years. Sure, it’s not 1Gbps by 2012, but hey, they might end up beating us at the “nationwide broadband” game.

American bringing in-flight WiFi to over 300 planes

All hail the laggard! With pretty much every other US-based legacy carrier already on board, we were beginning to wonder if American Airlines even got the memo that in-flight WiFi was in serious demand. At long last, the company has made clear that it plans to equip more than 300 MD-80 and Boeing 737-800 aircraft used primarily in the United States with high-speed WiFi capability (over the next two years). If you’ll recall, American announced early on that it was game for trialing the tech, but until today, it had yet to make a commitment large enough to make you consider signing up for its credit card and bankrolling those frequent flyer miles. We’re expecting more details to emerge soon, but feel free to start pestering its agents with the whos, whats, wheres and whens.

All this can be yours, dear readers, later this month when Casio launches the EX-FS10 point-and-shoot, capable of capturing full-res video at 30fps or cut-rate 224 x 64 footage at a whopping 1000fps.
