Fagor of Home Appliance Manufacturers (AHAM) is expanding its Directory of Certified Room Air Cleaners to include information on ozone emissions. AHAM’s certification program currently tests the performance of room air cleaners in reducing tobacco smoke, dust and pollen. The directory will allow participants to indicate whether products comply with the ANSI and UL safety standard 867 for ozone emissions. Compliance with the ANSI/UL 867 ozone standard will be displayed as an additional column in AHAM’s directory and will note whether each model meets UL’s 50 ppb maximum ozone emission limit. This new feature will appear in the next edition of the directory, which is scheduled for release this month. America of Lyndhurst, N.J., marketers of high-end European appliances, is partnering with Berloni, a kitchen cabinetry and home furnishing company, in the United States.

The kit allows users to logon to a computer without using IDs or passwords. The Japan-based company has also begun sell a mouse model and a standard model for corporate users. PalmSecure uses advanced matching algorithms to identify vein patterns on a person’s palm. These patterns are unique to each individual and contain detailed characteristics. BIOMETRIC LOGINS. NEC USES FACE. NEC has launched two series of laptops with a biometric security feature dubbed “face pass.” The LaVie C and LaVie L series includes facial recognition software that enables only a programmed user to log onto a computer. NEC’s software, called NeoFace, is a biometric system that uses a combination of eye zone extraction and facial recognition to identify the computer’s user.
