KHNL.com: Federal probation officers in Hawaii have another tool to keep tabs on felons out on probation. A kiosk equipped with a â€˜pupil-ometer,' a biometrics program that can detect drug use by scanning the eye, has been set up under a pilot program. The ID of the felon being scanned is verified by fingerprint scan, and the felon's eyes are examined by the machine. Positive response for drug use is followed up by a traditional urine or other drug test.
