Company's HBOX Solution Recognized for the 2009 New Product Innovation

NEW YORK, Dec. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Global Rainmakers, Inc., an intellectual property holding company and advanced R&D laboratory, has been awarded the prestigious Frost & Sullivan Award for New Product Innovation, in the Iris Recognition Biometric Market North America, 2009.

The award recognizes key industry challenges addressed specifically by Global Rainmaker's HBOX® solution, which is a multi-modal biometric technology combining the iris and the face that delivers a high level of security with convenience, ease-of-use, high person-throughput, and cost-effectiveness. The HBOX family of products can be configured to serve as an electronic, physical and logical access control system and is a genuinely new paradigm in tokenless identity management.

"The potential value of biometrics has been understood for some time in the access control industry, but have not been realized due to a number of factors, including cost, size, scalability and the like," said Hector Hoyos, Chairman and CEO, Global Rainmakers. "With the HBOX solution we now have a way to address all of those issues without compromising the integrity of the technology."

Frost & Sullivan used several criteria when considering Global Rainmakers, including product innovation, the use of cutting-edge technology, value-added features and benefits, increased customer value, and customer acquisition/penetration potential. Also considered were factors such as scalability, price point, performance, ease-of-use and marketplace need.

"The recognition from the industry professionals at Frost & Sullivan is a huge honor," said Hoyos. "We have been flying under the radar for the last four years and are now rolling out our previously high-end technology into the commercial marketplace, which will make our biometric technology a mainstream element of corporate, tokenless security."

The HBOX solution, already in use by several federal government agencies, is currently being rolled out in a commercial capacity to banking and other financial services companies in the United States.
