BI2 Technologies Enters Into Exclusive Agreement with Retica Systems
(Plymouth, MA) - Biometric Intelligence & Identification Technologies (BI2 Technologies) of Plymouth, Massachusetts, a leading provider of iris biometric identification technologies for law enforcement, announced today that it has entered into an agreement to exclusively offer and utilize iris biometric technologies developed by Retica Systems, Inc. of Waltham, Massachusetts.
BI2 Technologies' iris biometric solutions and systems are currently installed and used by law enforcement agencies in 30 states. BI2's technologies include its Sex Offender Registry and Identification System (SORISTM), Inmate Recognition and Identification System (I.R.I.S.TM), The Child ProjectTM and Senior Safety NetTM. BI2 Technologies has received the endorsement of the National Sheriffs' Association.
Retica Systems is a leading provider of iris biometric technology algorithms, software and innovative cameras including Mobile EyesTM and Eagle EyesTM.
"We are very pleased with our exclusive agreement with Retica," Sean G. Mullin, president and CEO of BI2 Technologies said. "We are the leading provider of iris biometric systems to local law enforcement agencies in the U.S. and, over the past 7 years, we have implemented more systems in more states and in more agencies than all of the other iris biometric companies combined. We know the technologies and have worked with every major algorithm and camera provider." Mullin said. "That's why," Mullin continued, "we are so pleased with our exclusive agreement with Retica. In our opinion, Retica has the most accurate and fastest iris biometric algorithm. Retica's technology is exceptional, but equally important, Retica's innovative cameras, Mobile EyesTM and Eagle EyesTM, have set a new standard for the biometric industry," Mullin said.
Mullin continued, "Our clients are mission critical law enforcement agencies in local communities across the U.S. It's not a 9 to 5 business. We understand their needs and we require exceptional reliability, service and support. No other iris biometric provider has even come close to the quality of Retica's algorithm, cameras, people and support. It made our decision for our clients easy."
Barry G. Morse, CEO of Retica Systems, Inc. said, "We are delighted and honored that BI2 Technologies has made the decision to exclusively offer Retica's iris biometric technologies. BI2 has the broadest, most comprehensive iris biometric public safety and community service solutions available today. BI2 has no peer in the local law enforcement market in the U.S."
Morse continued, "Retica's technologies, including our ruggedized Mobile EyesTM camera and our iris at a distance and on the move Eagle Eyes systems uniquely meet the difficult, real world requirements of law enforcement."
