BALTIMORE, Aug. 12, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- View Systems, Inc. (OTCBB:VSYM), a security and tele-data solutions provider, announced today that a series of purchase orders have been received from the New Jersey Department of Corrections for new ViewScan Concealed Weapons Detection Systems. The NJDOC has purchased ViewScans in the past for each of its correctional facilities.
ViewScan is fast becoming the choice screening system across the country. It's a computer-based system that can scan up to 1200 people per hour. As a person passes through the portal, a photograph is taken and stored on the laptop computer that comes with the unit. Threat objects are visually located on the computer screen and an audible alert can be set to sound. The ViewScan produces no harmful emissions so it's safe for everyone.
ViewScan units are currently deployed in all Maryland and New Jersey correctional facilities, as well as in courthouses, banks, schools and other professional buildings across the country. ViewScan has been utilized on a rental basis by major banking firms to secure their shareholder meetings. It was also retained as part of the security measures for the Clinton Global Initiative five years in a row.
Gunther Than, CEO of View Systems, states, "We are delighted that the NJDOC has decided to continue to use the ViewScan systems for each of their facilities. This set of purchase orders is a testament to the reliability and functionality of the ViewScan unit."
