by msecadm4921

US biometrics manufacturer Visionics has received more orders for FingerPrinter CMS live scan systems at US airports.

US manufacturer Visionics has received new orders for five FingerPrinter CMS live scan systems at airports across the US, making a total of 40 airports that have adopted Visionics live scan systems to aid in complying with the latest US federal mandates for employee fingerprint background checks.

Dr Joseph J Atick, chairman of Visionics says: ?Fingerprint background checks are but one important component of the overall security package that the airport community must adopt and these latest live scan orders are a testament to the continued momentum in penetrating the air travel market. Having a unique capability
to offer a broad range of biometric solutions, we are working hard to lay the foundation today for what will become a comprehensive security solution of tomorrow’s airports.? Visionics FingerPrinter CMS is an integrated live-scan management system that captures, prints and transmits fingerprints electronically. The system captures fingerprints of applicants and transmits the images to the US Office of Personnel Management which then submits the image for search against the FBI’s IAFIS (Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System) database.
