In a boon to virtual workers everywhere, The King Jim Corporation of Japan has developed the ‘Clock On’ clock that displays the time as a QR Code. While sitting there in your virtual home-office with your barcode-reading cell phone, you start your shift by punching-in ( Ã la timeclock fashion) by scanning the QR code and xmitting it to your manager. I guess it beats having an implanted RFID device or something…
And in what may be a 1st, Omron has developed software for cell phones that supports biometric face recognition. …Some competition for those boring password and fingerprint based systems. Hmm … nobody seems to be working on cell phone biometrics based on skin, hand, voice or iris recog … wonder if there are any business opps there?
