eye scan matches in security tes
By Michael Graczyk
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HOUSTON - Houston’s Bush Intercontinental
Airport began participating Tuesday in a federal
test program designed to speed frequent flyers
through security checkpoints by using fingerprint
and eye scan matches on a special ID card.
Houston becomes the third airport in the nation
to let passengers who have registered person
al information with the Transportation Security
Administration to use an express lane that scans
their biometric information as they leave ticketing
areas for boarding gates.
Minneapolis-St. Paul and Los Angeles started
the 90-day test last month. Boston and Washington
Reagan are set to join later this month.
“My sort of analogy is, if you’re trying to find a
needle in a haystack, meaning terrorism in a big group
of people, you need to try to make the haystack a little
bit smaller,” Houston airport director Rick Vacar said.
“And I think this program really gets at that point.”
After submitting fingerprints and an iris scan to
the government, passengers undergo a background
check to see if they have outstanding criminal
warrants or show up on a terrorist watch list. 0:
approved — officials said so far most of
applying have been approved — they receive
electronic card similar to a credit card.
At the airport, passengers insert the card!
reader at a kiosk. They look into a mirror ft
iris scan, which analyzes the individualized
turcs that exist in the colored tissue surrouni
the pupil. Then they stick their finger in a seif Deput
that detects the unique ridges and valleys
person’s fingerprint.
If everything matches to the stored datao
person, a message appears on a monitor withina
seconds that says: “Success. You may proceed.'
Transportation Security Administration
cials hope about 2,000 people at eachoftliefi
airports participate in the Registered Traveler
Program, and will make a decision in Novel
on whether to expand it.
Gretchen Tickle, 61, of Spring, said she
comfortable in giving the government her
sonal information. She travels extensively
her work with a Houston Catholic church
believes the ID cards are a great idea toh
security checks go faster.
