Wndows 7 as of now Beta 1 introduces the Windows Biometric Framework
which makes integration easier and more consistent to help deliver
enhanced reliability, compatibility and usability of fingerprint-based
solutions. The Windows Biometric Framework also makes it easier for
developers to include biometrics in their applications by providing a
common API that can be added independently with each biometric
fingerprint solution.
