Jim, the following story does not square with the releases that VISG & VSNX made yesterday, could spell some trouble for both stocks.
Machines at an airport fail face-recognition test
By LANCE GAY
Scripps Howard News Service
May 16, 2002

- Random tests of facial-recognition technology at a Florida airport this spring show that it failed to identify even half of the employees who went through screening.


William:

Using the glass is half full argument one could say that the system works about 50% of the time... That's still not good enough but something is better than nothing... From here they should be able to improve the accuracy... If we could have identified 9 out of the 18 9/11 terrorists we could have saved many lives... In the meantime if this scares down the price of VISG to close the 2.00 gap, that'll be fine with me... : >
