The NSA also negotiated, as part of its agreement, that BI² Technologies will also provide any participating Sheriff – at no upfront cost to the Sheriff or county – with the NSA endorsed and cutting-edge Inmate Recognition and Identification System, I.R.I.S.™.

I.R.I.S.™ technology uses the human iris (the colored part around the pupil) to accurately identify a person.  I.R.I.S.™ is far more accurate than a fingerprint and results are provided within seconds.  Sheriffs across the country are using this remarkable technology to better protect the public and their staffs.  You know for sure who you have.  And no Sheriff ever wants his staff to release the wrong person.
