"Matching performed using MegaMatcher SDK could find more valid duplicateentries than any other SDK used for the same purpose," said Lt. Col. MdMostafizur Rahman, Staff Officer Grade - 1 (Information TechnologyDirectorate) for the Bangladesh Army. "It has enhanced the technologicalcapabilities of our system and the cost-per-unit for the SDK is cost-effective."

"Bangladesh is a country with a large population, so the task of searchingfor duplicates is complicated and requires a large number of matchingoperations and significant reliability," said Dr. Algimantas Malickas, CEO ofNeurotechnology. "I'm glad that the Bangladesh Army and system integratorDohatec, in their implemented system, successfully explored MegaMatcherfunctionality for the solution to this problem."

The Dohatec Biometrics Fusion Server(C) system uses MegaMatcher Client togenerate templates from face and fingerprint images that were captured with aBIO-Key(R) system, then MegaMatcher Server and MegaMatcher Cluster Server areused to search the database and identify duplicate records. Bangladesh runsMegaMatcher on Microsoft Windows XP and Microsoft Windows Server withMicrosoft SQL Server as the back end database.

MegaMatcher provides the high speed and reliability required for thedevelopment of national-scale automated fingerprint identification systems(AFIS) and multi-biometric face/fingerprint identification systems. Suitablefor both civil and forensic use, MegaMatcher includes both fingerprint andface identification engines with a fusion algorithm that allows the twotechnologies to work together to provide very fast 1:N (1 to many) matchingwith even higher reliability than AFIS or facial recognition alone.

The MegaMatcher fingerprint recognition algorithm has received full NISTMINEX certification for use in the US Government Personal IdentityVerification program fingerprint recognition applications. MegaMatchersupports BioAPI 2.0 and most other biometric industry standards and can beused in conjunction with other Neurotechnology products, including VeriFinger,VeriLook and the FaceCell and FingerCell embedded development kits. Allcomponents of MegaMatcher can be used on both Microsoft Windows and Linuxoperating systems.

MegaMatcher 2.1 SDK is available with highly competitive licensing optionsthrough Neurotechnology or from distributors worldwide. A 30-day trial versionwith full functionality is also available for download. For more information,go to: http://www.Neurotechnology.com.

About Neurotechnology

Neurotechnology is a provider of high-precision biometric fingerprint,face and iris identification algorithms, object recognition technology andsoftware development products. More than 1900 system integrators, securitycompanies and hardware providers integrate Neurotechnology's algorithms andsoftware development technologies into their own products, with millions ofcustomer installations worldwide.

Neurotechnology's identification algorithms have consistently earned thehighest honors in some of the industry's most rigorous competitions, includingthe National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST)'s Fingerprint VendorTechnology Evaluation (FpVTE) and the Fingerprint Verification Competitions(FVC).

Drawing from years of academic research in the fields of neuroinformatics,image processing and pattern recognition, Neurotechnology was founded in 1990in Vilnius, Lithuania under the name Neurotechnologija and released its firstfingerprint identification system in 1991. Since that time the company hasreleased more than 40 products and version upgrades for identification andverification of objects and personal identity. On April 14, 2008 the companyannounced an official name change to Neurotechnology.
