People are carrying around tablets. UID brainstorming still on.
11:10 AM
UID apps for Android, porting apps, Libraries etc are going to be the consumers.
11:02 AM
Cool Demo of UID. WebService hitting the UID server, passing the Demographic, UID and finger print, and it works, pass a false finger print, and it says biometric didn't match!
10:55 AM
People are trying to mind hack around UID.
10:41 AM
The UID registration app is being demoed.(its a desktop app). It is quite intelligent.
10:32 AM
There is no standard Identity card for people of India. DL is a license to drive and not an ID proof. Same with Ration card, PAN card etc. And also is a headache to the issuing authority to verify the identity.
This also makes other entities disbelieve the issuing authority. And have to do the verification on their own, which increases the cost of Service Delivery. Thats where UID comes in.
10:27 AM
Sanjay guiding the discussion. Video is on.
10:25 AM
Discussions on UID started. People think its good. But at the same time they think they will have somebody looking over their shoulders.
