When looking at patents filed by Apple, one can identify one dealing with recording, storing and checking biometric information. Planned to be integrated in any devices, from the iPod to the computer, patent claims are broad enough to cover all type of biometrics, from the digital prints to voice signature, including face recognition, hand palm identification, etc.
