Cannot find this epic this site..so I thought I bring it to peeps attention.

Another poster on another BB claims Airport security contracts for biometric etc have been won. Announcements due quite soon now.
This share is very illiquid..I cannot stress that enough. Has risen from 90p to 1.70 recently and looks to have settled at this price.

Ringdale Quick-ID Overhauled With Customizable Color Touch Panel Interface

Ringdale's Quick-ID has been completely overhauled with a customizable colour touch panel interface. Quick-ID comes standard with an enrollment camera and an enrollment fingerprint reader for the enrollment station and just a fingerprint reader for the Verification station. The 14inch colour LCD touch screen is optional. Quick-ID is currently the industrys fastest way to enroll and identify a persons data and visual appearance.

Applications where Rindale's technology will significantly enhance security and make the process more efficient are:

Airport Attended Security Gates Bank Tellers Check Cashing Outlets Guarded Reception Areas Military and Commercial Hospital Reception Areas Fitness Center and Health Clubs Mobile Law Enforcement Manned Security Posts In an Airport the flyers face and fingerprint can be registered on the check-in counter where the data of the persons passport is entered. The information is held centrally so if the customer would show up at the wrong gate, immediate notification will show on the gates screen that the customer was registered for a different flight also the persons face and details will appear on the screen making it no longer necessary to see the persons passport as a visual verification with an up-to-date picture can be made.

In a Check Cashing outlet the shop owners most effective protection against fraud is to only accept and cash checks from persons known to the shop owner. This often causes a problem on weekends or during holiday times as the person knowing the clients has the dilemma that his visual knowledge is not easily transferred to another person. The Qick-ID system from Ringdale allows the registration of face and fingerprint as well as keeping track of checks that have been cashed in the past, a maximum credit line and a black list of issuers of checks that the shop does no longer want to cash.

Once the customer is enrolled, a 30 second process, any trustworthy person can now share the visual information of the customers picture and verify that the person is the person that they say they are in less than 2 seconds, whilst getting all pertinent information on the screen to be ready to process the check.

In a Bank the signature is often still the only way to identify a person an a lot of bank fraud is still committed. Elaborate systems have been developed by banks, which could be streamlined using Quick-ID increasing throughput on the counter and increase customer satisfaction, whilst eliminating the risk of fraud.

Fitness Centers can benefit from Quick-ID allowing unattended entry to the fitness area using their fingerprint, the receptionist can verify the identity by looking at the picture registered for the subscriber. Quick-ID comes with subscription management and automatically terminates access to the facilities when the subscription period has ended. A Touch Screen (optional at additional cost) interface allows self enrollment and status alerts like "5 days subscription left - Like to renew now?" Multiple stations for logging in and self service can be networked together. For Multiple Stations you will require SQL Database Server access. SQL Server Software or Hardware not included in stipulated price.

All Ringdale software products are easy to install and provide an intuitive operator interface. This system works on ny current Windows Platform such as NT, 2000, 2003, XP Home and XP Professional.
