Introducing the BioKnob

Tychi Systems is currently developing a door knob that only lets you enter once it identifies yourself by your fingerprints. They call it, the BioKnob. I personally thing the name is pretty bad ass, but who is going to want or need this?

This product has the potential of recording a log of every person who walks through a particular door. I could definitely see this type of product being used in places of high security, but it has to be hacker proof. Is it more secure than a normal key?
