Futuristic Social Security Card
For those in the US, here’s a new social security card concept:
“Of the three forms of identification we have in the states–the other two being the passport and driver’s license–[the Social Security card is] the one that unlocks your life,” says Frog designer Laura Richardson. To that end the design firm presents the Troika, an aluminum SS card with a multifunctional screen.
“By combining the familiarity and proportions of a standard ID card with the durability of a water-resistant, flexible screen and the security of biometrics, [a card like this] could revolutionize the future of identification,” says Richardson.

Pretty design, all your information listed on one card and easier for the taking.
I see this technology as inevitable: our evolutionary drive for pattern recognition cause us to build these things.
I also see it’s misuse as inevitable as well – we’re going to use it to stifle the human will. I believe it’s going to be interesting to watch us adapt and overcome this challenge.

Agreed, it’s going to be in one form or another. Any of them guaranteed to have a crappy picture!
