B: DIGITAL BIOMETRICS ANNOUNCES LOS ANGELES COUNTY ORDER FOR PHOTOGRAPHIC IMAGE
CAPTURE SYSTEMS
MINNETONKA, Minn., July 7, 1999 -- PRNewswire/ -- Digital Biometrics,
Inc. (Nasdaq: DBII), a Minnetonka, Minn.-based supplier of
identification systems and related systems integration services,
announced today the order of 60 photographic image capture stations for
Los Angeles County. These units will be used to capture and transmit
"mug shot" photographs. This order will complete the photo capture
installation for the Los Angeles County installed base of TENPRINTER
systems that previously were not equipped with this feature, including
all municipal and superior courts lock-ups. This enhancement, which
permits complete bookings when prisoners are remanded to court, will
expedite processing into the Los Angeles County Jail.
With this order, Los Angeles County will have a single integrated
system for capturing fingerprints, mug shots, and "scars, marks and
tattoos" images, making the booking process quicker and more efficient.
Incorporating photo capture through the DBI photographic imaging system
with the TENPRINTER allows for the photographic image to be captured
either before or after the fingerprint process. All captured images are
stored as separate records, but linked by a common user-defined
identifier. This streamlined operation insures that law enforcement and
other organizations get high quality images for both photos and
fingerprints.
Jim Granger, DBI's president and CEO, said, "We are pleased to announce
this add-on business with a major customer. The order is valued at more
than $1 million. We anticipate installation during the company's fiscal
year 2000, which begins on October 1, 1999."
Digital Biometrics is a provider of biometric identification systems
and related server-based systems and systems integration services. DBI
is a leading supplier of computer-based fingerprint capture products
forlaw enforcement and commercial applications.
