thanks, Luke... Visionics might be the facial firm
also, confirmation is the tease editor said it was at $16
if their CEO is from Israel, and developed in NYCity, bingo
the editor claimed that (VSNX) had huge technology lead

the other possible one was Viisage (VISG)
but the price never hit $16
both have roots in M.I.T.

thanks, again, Jim

Vision, or scene analysis, is one of the core problems of artificial intelligence and is probably the most difficult one. It's not very far along yet. If we could recognize a face with good probability then we could recognize a machine part and robot assembly would be a reality. So would an automatic truck driver. We're simply not there yet. We need a few dozen more Ph.D. theses at MIT, Stanford. Carrnegie-Mellon etc. Or maybe some lone genius in India or Russia will jump ahead of the field with some new insight. JMHO
