HP Powers Iris Recognition Security System Designed to Improve
School and Student Safety
Security and identification applications from Eyemetric
Identity Systems, LG Electronics and Newton Security built on
reliable HP technology
PALO ALTO, Calif., Jan. 23, 2006 -- HP today announced that its
blade server and PC technology is powering an iris recognition
security and visitor management system launched Monday by the
Freehold Borough School District in Freehold, N.J.
Designed to improve overall school and student safety while
reducing the administrative burden associated with the student sign
in/sign out process, the Teacher-Parent Authorization Security
System (T-PASS) uses highly accurate iris recognition technology to
establish positive identification of school employees, parents,
guardians and visitors.
Laptop Battery HP collaborated with Eyemetric Identity Systems, LG Electronics
USA and Newton Security, Inc., to deliver the technology to the
school district. The system is part of a study funded by a school
safety grant valued at more than $369,000 from the National
Institute of Justice, a research branch of the U.S. Department of
Justice. Participation in the study is voluntary.

Thinkpad "HP is proud to showcase how its innovative, reliable technology
can help improve the safety of our nation's schools and our
children," said Michael Humke, director of worldwide education,
Technology Solutions Group, HP. "If this study is successful,
schools around the world can adopt this iris recognition security
system to improve school safety while modernizing traditional
school administrative processes."

Microsoft The system's iris recognition technology provides an accurate
method for personal identification that, unlike fingerprint
identification, is quick and non-invasive. The Freehold deployment
uses a special camera to take close-up images of an individual's
irises, the colored part of the eyes. The images are converted to a
digital template and then stored electronically in a computer
database along with contact information, specific access
permissions and a photograph of individuals associated with
particular students.

Laptop Computers If the iris images in the database match those offered by an
individual seeking entry into the school, the school door
automatically unlocks. Typically, access is granted or denied in
less than two seconds.
HP is committed to ensuring the security of your information. The HP Home & Home Office Store uses the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) security protocol, the most widely accepted Internet encryption standard. This system protects your private information while it is transferred from your computer's server to ours.
Laptop Computer "By participating in this study and deploying iris recognition
technology, Freehold Borough School District is at the forefront of
school security," said Phil Meara, superintendent, Freehold Borough
School District. "The school district realizes enhanced security
and greater efficiencies by applying technology to transform main
office tasks like student sign in/sign out and visitor
management."

Desktop Computer The nation's first school district study of iris recognition
technology occurred at Plumsted Township School District in New
Egypt, N.J., in 2003. Freehold Borough School District is
benefiting from enhancements and improved functionality as a result
of lessons learned at Plumsted, including:
Notebooks * A visitor management application that produces visitor badges
containing photos of the visitor and the child or school employee
whom the visitor is signing in or out of school or visiting;
Lenovo
* A tailgating detection system that monitors the frequency of
when an individual holds the school door open for another
individual;
Hard Drive
* A time-saving application that scans driver's license
information and retrieves information for records, eliminating the
need to type such information into the database.

The study has thus far received a positive response. Nearly 290
individuals have enrolled to participate in the study, enhancing
security and expediting access and sign in/sign out processes at
the Freehold Learning Center, Park Avenue Elementary School and
Freehold Intermediate School, as well as the district
administrative offices. Individuals who choose not to participate
in the study ring a doorbell and wait to be admitted to provide
identification and sign the visitor registry.
Gateway The iris recognition system was developed and deployed with the
assistance of Eyemetric Identity Systems, which designed the T-PASS
application using IrisAccess cameras and software from LG
Electronics and the T-DAR anti-tailgating system from Newton
Security.
Laptop Parts The school's security and visitor management system components
include:
Software * HP - industry-standard HP ProLiant DL140 server, HP dx5150
Small Form Factor Desktop PC with AMD processor, and Access Point
for wireless networking from ProCurve Networking by HP.
Hard Drives
* LG Electronics, Iris Technology Division - LG IrisAccess 3000,
iris camera and software. LG's IrisAccess platform is the leading
iris recognition system in the world and is deployed at thousands
of locations in public and private sectors on six continents.
Electronics
* Newton Security - Tailgate Detection Alarm Recording (T-DAR)
system and software. Newton Security is the world's largest
supplier of single person detection systems using machine
vision.

The Department of Justice will use the study to gauge the
multicultural Freehold community's perception of using this
technology in a school environment, as well as to evaluate its
effectiveness to improve school and student safety.
