Spearheaded and inspired by the Bertillon coding system for the classification of humans based on physical measurements, scientists and engineers have been trying to invent new devices and classification systems to capture the human identity from its body measurements. One of the main limitations of the precursors of today’s biometrics, which is still present in the va...
