The purpose of the attendance by the company at the American Public Health Association The American Public Health Association (APHA) is Washington, D.C.-based professional organization for public health professionals in the United States.

Examples are face, iris and retinal patterns, hand geometry and voice. Increasingly built into laptop computers, fingerprint readers have become popular as a secure method for identification. . Several customers indicated an immediate need for the ADCNET(TM) specifications in order to apply for funding in the current fiscal year.

In Fort Lauderdale, the ADCNET(TM) system was debuted by company officials for the expanding U.S. correctional-facility marketplace. A survey of attendees indicated that ADCNET(TM) features of biometrics identification solve several important problems currently faced by administrators of jails, prisons and other correctional facilities.

Specifically, the ability to track an individual accurately despite an attempt to use an alias or otherwise obscure the identity was viewed by attendees as an important technological advantage, especially with reference to health records.

A statewide system of biometric stations utilizing ADCNET(TM) equipment and software was discussed with officials from one of the department-of-corrections agencies in attendance.

Beecham expressed satisfaction that the marketplace for biometric linked databases appears to be strong. Anonymous Data's business plan includes pursuing applications in these marketplaces especially under patent protection through current patent licenses held by the company.

"We had expected our product line to be well received, but we could have never anticipated the response or immediate need evident at these two very important national meetings," said Beecham. "Using this as a barometer, I think we can fairly expect our goals for the next few years to be expedited considerably."
