Rugged iDLMax Ideal for Wireless Multi-Modal Biometric Identity Checks by Fingerprints, Identity Cards, Photographs

TAMPA, FL – September 22, 2008– Law enforcement, military, and Homeland Security personnel looking for fully-integrated mobile identity verification options now have two new tools to better track and locate individuals with multi-modal biometric introductions from US based MaxID. The new products feature rugged designs for all environments and the ability to remotely identify individuals by fingerprints, scan access and identity cards, photograph subjects, and retrieve information through wireless connections.

“We are delighted to demonstrate our new iDLMax handheld computer at the industry’s premier exhibition,” said Stephen Grist, CEO of MaxID. “The iDLMax is a complete, integrated mobile solution for all badging and identity management requirements. When our customers need to read TWIC, CAC, or FRAC cards, or driver’s licenses, as well as use the other on-board biometric functions to verify identity, the iDLMax connected handheld device does it all a light, compact, easy-to-use form factor.

“With growing demand for multi-modal biometric devices, we’re also excited to showcase at the 2008 Biometrics Consortium our BHC-100 -- a complete integrated multi-modal biometric handheld computer. This rugged touch screen/full keyboard-form computer runs a full version of Windows(TM) and includes an iris camera, fingerprint reader, and multiple smart card and barcode-reading capabilities. When allied to its complete range of connectivity, this device provides a truly capable mobile biometric solution with the ability to enroll and access real-time data on the move,” Grist said.

Both new MaxID products are being introduced this week in Tampa, Florida at the 2008 Biometric Consortium Conference and Technology Expo, an event focused on biometric technologies for homeland security, identity management, border crossing, electronic commerce, and other applications.
