Investigative Facial Recognition Built for Detectives
AI-powered face matching, forensic video processing, and investigative case management — all with a full audit trail designed for law enforcement investigations.
AI-powered matching combined with forensic image processing generates solid investigative leads from even the poorest quality source material.
Video Intelligence
Extract usable face probes from hours of surveillance footage automatically — even with poor lighting, noise, or camera shake.
Full Audit Trail
Every search, match result, and case action is logged with officer ID, timestamps, and case data — ready for court or compliance review.
Seamless Integration
Connects to your JMS and RMS to auto-enroll booking images into the facial database and link demographic data to every record.
Multi-Agency Collaboration
Intranet or secure cloud deployment enables sharing with prosecutors, patrol, and local or federal agencies from a single installation.
Identify a Person of Interest — Instantly
FOCUS dramatically improves both the speed and accuracy of facial identification through easy-to-use machine learning software. No special training or prior knowledge of video or image manipulation is required — simply create a case file, open a video, and click play.
Face Search & Image Processing
Lasso around a subject's face and matches are generated in seconds. Built-in filters transform dark or blurry frames into clear, searchable images. Accommodates any nonproprietary video or image format as input.
Results in Seconds
Possible matches return in rank order for review and are saved for historical reference. Because the process is fast, users can try multiple attempts in a very short time frame — enabling more searches that produce optimal results.
Case Management
A sophisticated Case Manager tracks all probe images and search results for each investigation, along with audit data including case open/close dates, officer ID, and case ID. View prior search results with marked favorites.
Video Processing
Scroll through videos and select a specific frame within seconds. FOCUS extracts usable face probes from crime scene footage even with poor lighting, noise, or camera shake. Process side views and partially obscured subjects for investigative leads.
How FOCUS Works
A classification algorithm inspects a subject's facial features by measuring head orientation and allowing for optical distortion. FOCUS uses a neural network to translate the face into a digital signature used for matching — and results are returned with exceptional speed and precision.
Mugshot Database Integration
Integrates with your existing mugshot database, automatically linking booking data, demographics, and arrest information to each face enrollment record.
Multi-Agency Sharing
Share cases across agencies via intranet or secure cloud. A single server installation makes FOCUS available to all authorized investigators, prosecutors, and patrol staff.
Side View & Masked Recognition
Investigators can obtain matches with only a side or masked view of a subject. FOCUS delivers accurate results when you need them.
