      Waehrend ueberall in Europa die Rufe nach Biometrietechnlogie  
lauter werden, preschen die Betreiber des Amsterdamer  
Flughafens einen Schritt vor und setzen Eyescanner als  
Passportersatz ein, zum Wohle der Benutzer natuerlich.

Amsterdam Airport Installs Eye-Scanning Security System New  
York Times Service New York Times Service Friday, October 26,

AMSTERDAM The machine will look you deep in the eye and  
record the 250 or so specks that you did not know you had. If it  
recognizes you, it will release a lock and open the gate. 
 
The state-of-the-art iris scanner has been installed at Schiphol  
Airport in Amsterdam, one of Europe's busiest airports and the first  
major international airport to use such technology to identify  
travelers. 
 
The Amsterdam airport always has been a bit of a maverick,  
offering a casino, a sauna, a meditation room and a wealth of other  
activities not necessarily associated with transportation.
