Already, a Japanese company has fixed ways that recognize (识别) people's fingerprints in 360 new homes.The machines open the doors only for the 5of the houses.The new security ways are selling well because thieves and robbers are getting better at breaking into buildings and computers that are 6 by keys and locks.Since nobody can steal or copy a fingerprint, or one's eyes, the new machines are 7.
Other new machines recognize one's voice.Two American companies use 8 machines to keep an eye on their computers.Inexpensive voice-recognition machines may someday take the place of locks on cars.The doors would open only for the owners.The machines would 9 the owners as little as $270.Although the up-to-date machines are amazing, scientists must still solve a serious problem.How will a boy borrow his dad's car without borrowing his dad's 10?
