Biometric Fingerprint Recognition on your S60 – Coming Soon

Yes, you read correctly. According to Symbian-Freak, ClassifEye’s Secure Biometric Solution has joined the Symbian Platinum Program to develop their solution for Symbian devices. The best part of the whole thing:

ClassifEye’s software eliminates the necessity for costly biometric hardware integration and is downloadable to existing camera smartphones.

Yeah, that means it’s a downloadable app to use the camera lens on your S60 to read your fingerprint for things from usernames and passwords to undoing a device lockdown to mobile banking. This is the stuff that power users like to see.

And did I point out that you will be able to download it right to your existing phone? No buying a new phone just to get that extra ounce of security. MAD PROPS for that, ClassifEye.
