I'd be interested to see the comparison error rates for different methods (hex vs images vs pseudowords vs poems, for example). For the tests, I could imagine giving users pairs of fingerprints which are either identical or a close match, and have them choose same/different after X seconds, where X is tuned to produce a significant error rate. I'd also try having one value on a screen, and the other in different formats that might be used for fingerprint exchange: e.g. printed on the front of a business card, displayed on a separate screen, read aloud, written on a napkin, etc. Trevor
