BALTIMORE, March 10, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- View Systems, Inc. (OTCBB:VYST), a cutting-edge homeland defense solutions provider, announced today the Secure Scan Concealed Weapons Detection Systems was highlighted in the January Edition of Law Enforcement Technology Magazine.
The article titled Taking Steps to Using Walk-Throughs reviews several manufacturers' detection portals, including Garrett and Fisher Labs, and interviews two Government Employees who have chosen View System's Secure Scan. Arapaho County Sheriff Sgt. JD Knight explains how the county ordered the system following a courthouse shooting.
Darris Summers, with Magnolia Sheriffs Department in Morgantown, WV., commented on reasons his Department chose the Secure Scan was its simplicity: "too many bells and whistles gives you too much to do."
Another feature Summers likes is that the detector doesn't sound an alarm when someone needs searching, but instead throws up a red border around the graph. "An alarm could alert the person to run."
The Company will post the article in its entirety on its web site, http://www.viewsystems.com/products.html.
"This article provide a great view into the current marketplace of weapons detections portals," stated View System's Gunther Than. "Coincidently the writer interviewed two Secure Scan customers who commented on why they selected our system and their experiences with the portal. This article provides a great third party review of the technology that should help increase awareness of our company and products."
