Today , with the current high resolution scanners and image processing
techniques,
it is very much possible to identify a human being uniquely even against a
database of 6 billion biometric records.

Face has aging issue. ( the  template changes )
Retina biometric has diabetic retinopathy issue.
Iris biometric is the best. But finger print biometric is cost effective (
and equally good)

Biometric technology is used to  identify a human uniquely for immigration
verification /Visa processing in many countries now
and is a part of Unique ID card project and Rural employment guarantee
programs in India.

Can elaborated the technological possibilities and uses  off-list if anyone
is interested

(We make many biometric scanners and  image  processing application and
implemented it in many banks and e-gov projects throughout India.)
