The Way You Walk
 
Gait Recognition

Technology Review had a very interesting article a few days ago about recognising patterns in the way people move -- Walk This Way. The project is based on old literature, such as Shakespear's work, which implies you can identify someone just by his walk in the distance. This is a great improvement in policy over the face recognition, since it's a much more practical solution.

In 10 years, when this technology is implanted in every airports, you'll be able to spot the dodgy passengers by the way they're trying to hide their style: "Who's the guy over there doing Monty Python's funny walk? He must be a terrorist!".
