Biometric Handbag: Protecting Your Valuables with Fingerprint Technology

Graduate student Louise Wilson has developed a biometric device to secure handbags against theft. The device uses fingerprint recognition to allow only the registered owner to open the bag, providing enhanced security. Inspired by her own experience of being pickpocketed, Louise has created prototypes and is seeking a company to further develop her invention. The device is expected to add about 60 pounds to the cost of a handbag, but Louise believes the added security is worth the investment. Biometric security is anticipated to become more prevalent in daily life.
