US Government test reaffirms excellent performance of Cognitec's face recognition engine

Cognitec Systems today announced that the results of the Face Recognition Vendor Test (FRVT) 2006, a large scale independent evaluation test of face recognition systems conducted by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology, first published on March 30, 2007, again confirmed the outstanding performance of the Company’s well-known face recognition technology. Of 22 companies and research institutes that participated in FRVT 2006, only Cognitec and 10 participants could complete the large-scale tests, and only Cognitec and one other company could deliver measurements in four different test scenarios for still images and 2D/3D data. The primary goal of FRVT 2006 was to measure progress of prototype systems/algorithms and commercial face recognition systems since a similar test conducted in 2002.
