DOVER, N.H., March 16, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Liska Biometry (OTCBB:LSKA) is pleased to announce that DCS Europe has completed the installation of the upgrade to the Nigeria Driver's License program. In February, Liska signed a definitive agreement to merge with the parent company of DCS Europe, DCS.
DCS Europe supplied a software solution for secure live image and data capture at 68 locations. The order included 68 custom-engineered DCS-8000 FlashSync video cameras, digital signature tablets and live fingerprint scanners. The value of the two initial orders exceeds $250,000.
DCS Europe engineered a custom user interface application for this project and sold the source code to its Nigerian Partners to allow future upgrades and expansion of the program using DCS/Liska hardware and software modules. The Government of Nigeria is already asking for proposals to include RF smart card modules and Biometric modules using Liska's proprietary BIN technology.
"This is exactly the type of organization we want to be partnered with," said Christopher J. LeClerc, Liska's Chairman and CEO. "The global positioning of DCS will create opportunities to leverage our proprietary BIN technology, and with version 2 to be released shortly I see great possibilities."
DCS has supplied the secure card materials for several years, and is researching a new higher security card features and design at the government of Nigeria's request. The government presently produces approximately 2 million licenses annually, and expects to expand the system this year.
