What is Biometrics? What can Imagis biometric technologies do for world security?
Biometrics is the science of verifying the identity of individuals from specific physical characteristics like their fingerprint, voice or facial structure. Imagis facial recognition software has a strategic advantage compared with other biometric procedures because of its simplicity, and lack of physical contact with the person being identified: the individuals need not know that their identity is being verified, and do not need to participate or cooperate in any way.
Imagis ID-2000 technology uses an array of facial features as the basis for its biometric identification. Complex algorithms are used to encode the face, and mathematical transformations are used to convert this into an index that can be stored in a database and subsequently searched at high speed.
Markets for Applications and Sales.
It can be used for verification for personal privacy - for example, at an automated banking machine. Or, it can be used to determine if any one of any number of people, with photos on file, are trying to enter a secure location, like an airport, or other secure facilities.
The market for Imagis facial recognition capabilities originally developed from the law enforcement sector. Imagis has already become the leading supplier of facial recognition capabilities to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police throughout Canada, various police departments centered around Alameda County, and West Covina in California, and Mexico, in addition to providing services at Toronto's Pearson airport.
The Future.
Imagis has a strong core technology, highly experienced management, the ability to finance growth, excellent access to markets, a strong Board and a growing network of international business partners.
