Ultimatemotorcycling.com has an interesting feature BMW Motorrad is developing.
The system is remarkably simple and built into the BMW Motorrad TFT display. With your helmet off, stripe projection is used to make a 3D map of your face which is stored in the motorcycle’s computer. When it comes time for a ride, an infrared scanner reads the face of the would-be rider—even in the dark. If BMW iFace recognizes you, it releases the steering lock and arms the ignition. If not, you’re not going anywhere.
