BALTIMORE, MD--(MARKET WIRE)--Jul 26, 2006 -- View Systems, Inc. (OTC BB:VYST.OB), a leading homeland defense solutions provider, announced today that a SecureScan III has been installed at the Port of Los Angeles in California. The Port has been using the original model SecureScan since 2003 and recently decided to upgrade to the latest system.
Funded by the US Department of Justice, the SecureScan III'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 III is sensitive enough to locate hidden razor blades and cell phones on its video image. The SecureScan III's open system architecture allows its data and video to be monitored and controlled remotely. The biometric, positive ID SecureScan III CWD is the latest tool in public safety screening.
View Systems' West Coast Representative, Craig Boyd, states, "The SecureScan III system is more ergonomically efficient to the Port's lobby than the initial model that had been in place. The SecureScan III has increased accuracy and the visual display graph is even more user-friendly than the original. View's technicians provided on-site training for the new SecureScan III."
View Systems CEO, Gunther Than, states, "According to their website, the Port of Los Angeles is the busiest port in the United States, and the eighth busiest port in the world. It has a total operating revenue of $368.8 million dollars (www.portofla.org). California is coming on strong as a tremendous market for View Systems. We will be introducing the biometric fingerprint verification system and the passport/driver's license scanning interfaces in California in the near future."
