Neurotechnology releases multi-modal solution

Tuesday, November 2, 2010

Neurotechnology has announced that it has released a new multi-modal solution that employs fingerprint and iris-based authentication.

The system, called MegaMatcher Accelerator 3.0, is being touted by the company for its matching speeds of 200 million irises per second and 100 million fingerprints per second. Subsequently, due to its high matching speeds, Neurotechnology believes its new solution to be a perfect match for large-scale identity detection projects such as voter duplication detection, passport issuance, border control and other applications where a need for one-to-many matching exists.


In addition to speed, the new version of the MegaMatcher system has increased its storage size with storage capabilities of up to 30 million fingerprints and 50 million irises.

Other aspects of the system Neurotechnology officials are touting include the ability to interface with other Neurotechnology systems allowing for the MegaMatcher system to potentially handle matching face and palm print samples, the ease of use and lower price. [end] 

The Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) announced that it intends to replace its Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS), reports the La Junta Tribune Democrat.

The 20-year old system contains almost 2.7 million master fingerprint records and is one of the oldest statewide law enforcement agency systems in the U.S. and can no longer keep up with demand. The system was designed to process 700 fingerprint cards in a 24 hour period, but today 1,000 to 1,500 fingerprint cards are put through the system.
