BIOMETRICS FIRM IDENTIFIES RALLY DRIVERS
ORLANDO, Florida- When bioTraits President, Ricardo Aguilar took a call from J. Sanchez, organizer of the coast-to-coast adventurally he was slightly confused. "I couldn't imagine why this guy called us." Said Ricardo, "He asked if bioidentification technology could be used to authenticate his rally competitors at check-in points. We never had a request like that. I remember we thought odd but interesting." The rest of course is now history as the Insurance Office of America Fireball Run Transcontinental Rally is the first road rally to incorporate biometric technology.
Teams won't be able to "pull a fast one" on Fireball Run staff. Each team member will be issued a unique identification card which stores the individuals' bioprint. Competitors checking-in must match the imprint on the card in order to successfully complete each leg of the rally. "This will prevent team swapping and makes cheating impossible" says event organizer J. Sanchez "Team reaction is great- they're excited to test this new system out."
Used within government, schools, businesses and now a rally, biometrics uniquely recognize humans based upon one or more intrinsic physical or behavioral traits. Recent advancements in networking, communication and mobility have greatly increased the reliability and ability to authenticate the identity of any person.
bioTraits is an Orlando based, minority owned biometric technology and software solutions provider. bioTraits specializes in the design, development, installation and operation of biometric-based identification systems. "The tie in with Child Rescue Network also hit home," Ricardo continued, "as we are all about identity."
The Insurance Office of America Fireball Run is an annual rally where 100 teams trek 9 days across America. The invitational has attracted people from around the world to play in the coast-to-coast adventure game. Fireballers are also on a The "Race to Recover America's Missing Children," the longest US physical recovery effort for abducted children in history.
