Military Grade, Field Deployable Biometric Identification System

"Ultrasound is a preferred modality for live-scan fingerprint imaging because of the superior image quality it produces (i.e. Modulation Transfer Function) that is unaffected by environmental and situational threats that affect other fingerprint sensors.Recent advancements in ultrasonic fingerprint technology indicate that significant improvements in accuracy (multiple orders of magnitude) can be achieved using an innovative solution pioneered by Ultra-Scan Corporation. The development of a large scanaperture ultrasonic fingerprint sensor provides unique three dimensional biometric data not offered by other biometric sensors. This, along with the application of a novel three-dimensional, non-linear biometric fusion algorithm will result in a nextgeneration system with accuracies that far exceed the current state of the industry. This level of accuracy, coupled with ultrasound's inherent insensitivity to contamination, makes it ideally suited for tactical military deployment where theenvironmental conditions vary tremendously.In Phase II, Ultra-Scan will develop prototype ultrasonic fingerprint identification systems. Beta testing will be conducted and Independent Verification and Validation of the system performance will be measured using Fast Track and Phase II matchingfunds. The Company with their extensive portfolio of patents in this field makes them uniquely qualified to perform this work and to commercialize upon its result
