Let me propose iPad Converter Suite for HD to MP4 converting.

Dactyloscopy isn't going anywhere. Forensic science has much relied on fingerprinting as a means of identification, largely because of the massive amount of fingerprints stored in the FBI's biometric database (IAFIS), which houses over 150,000 million prints.
