Friday, July 16, 2010. Alexandria, Va. - MorphoTrak (Safran Group) today announced that it has integrated the new 1000ppi fingerprint and palmprint capture scanner in its livescan workstations. These workstations were demonstrated at the ongoing International Association for Identification (IAI) Educational Conference in Spokane, WA. This annual conference is one of the largest gatherings of local, state and federal law enforcement professionals.

As a leading provider of Automated Fingerprint Identification Systems (AFIS) and partner with Cross Match Technologies, Inc., MorphoTrak is the first AFIS provider to integrate this new scanner into its product offerings. Not only is the new Cross Match L SCAN® 1000PX the fastest 1000ppi scanner in the industry, but it provides the highest resolution and best contrast of any scanner available.

The new scanner’s intuitive display guides users through the capture process, providing real-time screen feedback and capturing fingerprint and palmprint images in less than 0.5 seconds. It exceeds the FBI image quality standards by 95 percent, making third-level fingerprint and palmprint details clearly visible.

“Our customers demand and receive the best so it was only natural for MorphoTrak to integrate this top-of-the-line 1000ppi scanner,” said Daniel Vassy, President and CEO of MorphoTrak. “The fast, convenient capture and high quality image resolution make the L SCAN 1000PX a welcome addition to our product portfolio.”
