"We are pleased with the confidence that both international and domestic customers have placed in us by quickly adopting and validating the unique features and benefits of the TouchPrint 4100." The TouchPrint 4100 from Identix was introduced mid- year 2006 to address the need for a small, lightweight, fast and easy-to-use slap and roll live scan fingerprint capture system that can be used for high volume civil applications. Unlike traditional live scan systems designed primarily for criminal applications and that depend on a trained individual to capture the fingerprint image, the superior technology and design of TouchPrint 4100 devices make it ideal for non-traditional fingerprinting environments, such as border crossings, and passport and visa processing offices. The TouchPrint 4100 combines all the benefits of the Identix Enhanced Definition imaging technology that goes beyond the minimum FBI Appendix F certification requirements, along with a host of intuitive capture features in a 6 inch by 6 inch footprint. The interface allows a user to easily switch back and forth from slap and roll capture mode.
