Press Release Summary = Leading Nigerian IT Products Provider Integrates M2SYS Fingerprint Software into Third Party National Voting System for Distribution on Over 10,000 Laptop Computers
Press Release Body = M2SYS Technology announced today that it was selected late in 2006 by a leading Nigerian IT products provider to deliver fingerprint scanners and software for the secure national voting project. After the original local vendor selected for the project faced delays in meeting its timeline for the fulfillment of a portion of needed IT units, Nigerian government officials sought out the help of another company, who turned to M2SYS for assistance.
M2SYS provided its Bio-Plugin(TM) fingerprint software, which enabled the rapid integration and deployment of a seamless biometric module within the voting software on more than 10,000 notebook computers. Even without having access to the voting software source code, M2SYS' partner was able to immediately replace the existing fingerprint module due to the unique architecture of Bio-Plugin(TM).
"We are very pleased that we were given the opportunity to help this important project achieve success," commented Mizan Rahman, CEO and Chief Scientist of M2SYS. "M2SYS was able to provide fingerprint software needed to ensure an expeditious return on investment for the Nigerian government. Our partner in Nigeria was able to adopt a seamless fingerprint recognition system with the government's existing third party voting software in a matter of days. This exemplifies the true power of our innovative Bio-Plugin(TM) technology."
Bio-Plugin(TM) enables software companies to quickly integrate a complete, seamless fingerprint recognition system, including a high-performance 1:N identification engine. Bio-Plugin(TM) eliminates the system dependencies, extensive development, and specialized knowledge of biometric complexities inherent to fingerprint SDKs.
