In an Android World

[Spaz]

I've always wondered about things that would be considered normal in a world or society either completely or mostly populated by androids, fembots, cyborgs, or any other type of artificial being. I intend this thread topic to be used to discuss various facets of society that might exist or be different in an android world.

Fingerprints:

My education is in criminal justice, and one of the things that always fascinated me the most was fingerprints and how despite the face that there are 8 billion+ people currently living, no one has or will ever have the same fingerprints as another person.

These are the fingerprint types typically seen in Humans: https://getsmarteye.com/8-different-typ ... -analysis/

I was wondering, for an android, what type of fingerprint do you think they would use to differentiate themselves from Humans? Obviously sleepers or androids designed to look exactly like an actual Human would probably still have normal Human looking fingerprints, but what different types of patterns would you imagine an android to have?

I would imagine a circuitry based pattern, or perhaps something resembling a QR code.

Tell me what you think.

Honestly, i agree.
It's probably a qr code.

But it could just negate fingerprints all together and just base it on biometrics.

Actually humans can have the same fingerprints and it's happened before in at least one murder case. It's rare as all hell but it can happen. But yeah a QR code would make the most sense for androids. Either that or they just make every robot have the same fingerprints (if they don't consider tbe crime aspect).
