the U.S. uses an epassport tracking system that involves a contactless smart card in the back of the passport booklet. like japan, it uses some biometrics. there is a copy of the passport photograph and that is considered the same. it is considered to be the safest method because it cannot be altered and has to be read by a special incriptor.

As a professional in this field – there are few types of sensors. The ones that are in use in the airports are “optical” sensors, which are quite easy to spoof – due to the fact that it is kind of a ‘camera’ that capture the image of the finger. one can easily use a high resolution image (paper) and spoof it. When you have a guard that looks at you – it is not that easy…
other types are silicon sensors with capacitive / RF based sensors that creates an image out of a ‘live’ finger, and these sensors are MUCH harder to be spoofed. They will be used in logical access applications (e.g. windows logon)

The MythBusters gang pulled this off on a episode last year as well.

Apparently, beating fingerprint scanners is easier than using the Captain Crunch decoder ring to get free long distance calls.
