Huntsville, Ala. – A Huntsville company whose fingerprint scanner can photographically capture fingerprints from as far as six meters has been named to Popular Science's "Best of What's New" list. The product, AIRprint, is made by IDair, a HudsonAlpha-based spinoff of Advanced Optical Systems. Most of IDair's customers are military, but this summer, a 24-hour fitness center was beta-testing the system as a way to stop people from sharing access keys without paying. The product, according to Popular Science, costs $5,000.
