BALTIMORE, MD--(MARKET WIRE)--Jul 13, 2006 -- View Systems, Inc. (OTC BB:VYST.OB), a leading homeland defense solutions provider, announced today that a purchase order for two SecureScan units has been received from the County of Orange, California. Units will be placed in the Central Justice Center and the North Justice Center in Santa Ana and Fullerton, respectively.
Funded by the Department of Justice, the SecureScan II's non-contact imaging capabilities reduce the need for wanding and pat-down searches. While ignoring common items like coins, watches, and jewelry, the SecureScan II is sensitive enough to locate hidden razor blades on its video image.
View Systems' West Coast Representative, Craig Boyd, states, "I am pleased with the progress in California. The Sheriff's Department realized the value of this unit for many reasons, but the archiving capability was really the main selling point. It's advantageous to be able to go back and see exactly who passed through the portal, and the SecureScan allows that function."
View Systems CEO, Gunther Than, states, "The California court system is the largest in the nation, comprised of 461 courthouses (www.courtinfo.ca.gov). There are 58 counties and sheriffs' offices in California, and over 400 police departments and police stations. California is coming on strong as a tremendous market for View Systems. We will be introducing the biometric fingerprint identification and verification system and the driver's license/state-issued ID scanning interfaces in California in the near future."
