Viisage partners with Siemens

BILLERICA, Mass. - Viisage has announced a technology integration and marketing partnership with Siemens AG that includes working with the electronics and engineering company’s building automation, fire safety and security business unit, Siemens Building Technologies. The identity verification company gains exclusive rights to Siemens’ 3-D image acquisition hardware and brings its 2-D and 3-D face recognition software to the deal. The Siemens Building Technologies unit will offer jointly developed face recognition systems to its business partners as a result of the transaction. Viisage expects to spend the next three to four months integrating the sensors and driver software it received from Siemens into its own products, according to Mohamed Lazzouni, chief technology officer at Viisage. Lazzouni did not speculate on when an integrated product featuring technology from both companies would become available on the market.
