“One Of A Kind” Bio-Identifier Exhibit

We are born with many biological traits that make us unique. One of the biological identifiers most commonly used for identification is  the fingerprint. In this exhibit, visitors scan and examine their fingerprints and compare them to others on a screen-based interactive.  Visitors can tap stock fingerprints to enlarge and examine them, allowing for further exploration/comparison of pattern and identification.​
