Lots of luck with this. Beyond the hygiene problem, there is the security problem. Biometrics are convenience features, not security. This one may be a little less vulnerable to replay than some, but not immune. Add the enrollment problem, i.e., binding the palm print to the identity and credit, not as easy as mobile.
