$400K!! for three schools, for a technology that is 45% accurate at best. I have never seen live prints that only have 7-20 minutiae points. More on the order of 80- 160 minutiae points.You can put 66 livescan stations (@$15K each), with an FBI certified singer finger scanner. Fingerprinting is 100% with a know source; 99.8% from a database.A parent swipes their KID RELEASE card, which contains their minutiae and jpg photo of the authorized parent embedded in a 2-D barcode; file size of minutiae is 200bytes.. The livescan prompts for the parents fingerprints, the system extracts minutiae and does a local match. The photo with confirmation is displayed. An attendant lets the parent in.When the parent does not have their KID RELEASE card, the parents minutiae is sent to central database where the identification is done. The attendant receives the response to allow entrance.This process is used all over the world for critical processes. Including prisoner release, passport issuance, driver's license issue, social benefit issue and fraud detection. California's entire social services system is based on two fingerprint minutiae identification.This guy Bolling sold them a bag...must be a tie to the mob...how else can you justify this weak technology for the cost. The ROI is not there.
Wow, this has gotten out of hand, I mean, come on!If some stupidass kid doesn't know what his parents look like, and this is directed towards parents, then they obviously aren't learning anything in school
