Digital Descriptor Systems Inc. & Nordic VLSI embark on fingerprint identification project.Descriptor (1) A word or phrase that identifies a document in an indexed information retrieval system. (2) A category name used to identify data. (operating system) descriptor Systems Inc. (NASDAQ/Small Cap: DDSIU-Units, DDSI-Common, DDSIW-"A" Warrants, DDSIZ-"B" Warrants) announced today that they have teamed with Nordic VLSI VLSI: see integrated circuit. (1) (Very Large Scale Integration) Between 100,000 and one million transistors on a chip. See SSI, MSI, LSI and ULSI. (2) (VLSI Technology, Inc., Tempe, AZ, www.semiconductors. AS regarding the development of a Fingerprint Identification/Credit Card system. Digital Descriptor Systems Inc. will supply the research and development funds (approximately $200,000) for a feasibility study "A Feasibility Study" is an episode of the original The Outer Limits television show. It first aired on 13 April, 1964, during the first season. It was remade in 1997 as part of the revived The Outer Limits series with a minor title change. . In exchange, DDSI DDSI Directorate of Defense Services Intelligence DDSI Didemethylsecoisolariciresinol DDSI Divorce, Drugs, and the Slipping Image (book) will receive the exclusive rights to the worldwide patents on this verification system. The Scanner Verification Card enables the cardholder's fingerprint to be read three-dimensionally. The thumb is placed on the card center that matches the fingerprint already stored in the card. This three-dimensional reading is superior to existing two-dimensional systems in that it permits 100% accuracy in identification. PIN numbers will be eliminated. The market potential for this technology is in credit cards, access cards, passports, driver's licenses Noun 1. driver's license - a license authorizing the bearer to drive a motor vehicle driver's licence, driving licence, driving license license, permit, licence - a legal document giving official permission to do something , passes to secret areas, telephone cards, future car keys, etc. The market in Sweden alone is considerable, generating more than 20 million plastic cards a year. This marks DDSI's first venture to develop a patented technology which will allow the company to expand to markets other than law enforcement. Garrett U. Cohn, president, chairman and chief executive officer of Digital Descriptor Systems Inc., stated, "This development work has generated interest from the Swedish Telephone Company, as well as the Norwegian Government." Cohn went on to say, "From a technical point of view, we will obtain insight into scanner technology and gather information regarding the cost of producing this product." Digital Descriptor Systems Inc. develops, assembles and markets computer installations, consisting of software and hardware, which capture video and scanned images, digitize To convert an image or signal into digital code by scanning, tracing on a graphics tablet or using an analog to digital conversion device. 3D objects can be digitized by a device with a mechanical arm that is moved onto all the corners. the image, link images to text and then store the images with text on a computer database or transmit the information by computer network or telephone transmission to remote locations and other networks such as LAN (Local Area Network) A communications network that serves users within a confined geographical area. The "clients" are the user's workstations typically running Windows, although Mac and Linux clients are also used. , WAN and RF. CONTACT: Digital Descriptor Systems Inc. Garrett U.
