Motorola Launches New Multi-Modal Biometric Identification Solution
Delivering Enhanced Performance and Interoperability
SCHAUMBURG, Ill., March 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Motorola, Inc.
(NYSE: MOT) today announced that it has been selected by the West Virginia
State Police to deploy its Motorola Printrak Biometric Identification
Solution (BIS). Motorola's latest BIS solution features new algorithms for
improved analysis of multi-modal biometric data delivering tenprint,
latent, palmprint and facial images. The BIS software has been optimized
for interoperable file exchange among agencies. The new solution also
features true Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and commercial
off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware, delivering greater flexibility to expand and
upgrade the system as future demand requires.
The West Virginia State Police selected Motorola via a competitive bid
process. "Motorola offered the technical solution that best met our needs,"
stated First Lieutenant Michael Corsaro, the Director of Criminal Records
and the AFIS Program for the West Virginia State Police. "Motorola's new
BIS includes a number of technological advances that will provide improved
accuracy and enable us to capture and search palmprints, further assisting
forensic teams in our crime-solving efforts."
The Motorola Printrak Biometric Identification solution supports a 1000
Pixels Per Inch (PPI) resolution for tenprint, latent, palmprint and facial
images. This newest generation BIS builds upon Motorola's industry leading
Minutiae Interoperability Exchange Test (MINEX) algorithm to deliver
enhanced interoperability, as shown in the National Institute of Standards
and Technology's ongoing MINEX tests. Additionally, Motorola's system
enables the storage of mugshot images and information within an Automated
Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS) system for greater system
management cost efficiencies and faster access to data.
In addition to the BIS, West Virginia State Police is implementing
digital booking capabilities with new 1000 PPI Motorola Printrak LiveScan
Stations. These new biometric acquisition tools feature a more intuitive
user interface and faster biometric processing enabling high-quality image
submission with even the most uncooperative suspects.
Motorola biometric capture solutions will be on display at Booth #2115
at the FOSE Conference and Exposition April 1-3 at the Washington
Convention Center. For more information on Motorola's MOTOA4TM solutions
