Patent awarded for security kiosk

September 6, 2012

LEID Products announced today that it was awarded a new patent for its Biometric Access Control System by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

The BACS computer ID Station Kiosk interfaces with electronic access cabinets, lockers and SmartRail gun rack systems to track assets, weapons and evidence for law enforcement, the announcement said.

Biometric fingerprinting enables restricted access to assets to only those authorized, while an RFID reader scans assets for tracking and verification. Additional security can be installed including a hand geometry scanner, card reader and Web-enabled remote management system.

"Our systems offer the highest level of security and accountability available today," said Sam Hoff, president of LEID products. "The issuance of this patent supports our investment in BACS and its innovative technology; it reinforces our position as a leader in access control systems with built in asset management and inventory control software."
