Does the Finger Scanner Really Scan Your Finger?

[LoopGirl]

On some entries, we've gotten the impression that the finger scanner works no matter what finger you use, or if you use no finger at all.

From what I understand, it scans the size and shape of the finger, not the actual finger print.

What is the name of the system they use?
