ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
condensed Financial Statements of the Company and notes thereto annexed hereto.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
After nearly twenty years of operation and a bankruptcy reorganization, the
Company is still a development stage company and it still has not yet achieved
a sufficient volume of sales to cover the large expenditures required for
product development, production engineering, tooling, equipment, and promotion
and sale of its products. As a consequence, the Company has continuously
operated at a loss from its inception to the present. It has been and is
currently dependent on the sale of its securities to fund its operations.
By filing for relief under the Bankruptcy Law, the Company expected to shed
itself of a substantial portion of the burden of its prior capitalization and,
to a lesser extent, of its general unsecured debt, so as to be able to finance
further development and marketing of its fingerprint identification technology,
which appeared to be much more advanced in many areas than the technology being
used by others.
During the six months ended March 31, 1996, the Company received $2,330,000
from the conversion of its warrants issued under the Bankruptcy Plan.
The Company had as of March 31, 1996 cash in the sum of $1,367,000 and
working capital of $423,300. On May 23, 1996, a $250,000 note payable was
converted into 250,000 shares of common stock, thereby increasing working
capital accordingly. The monthly costs of the Company for the six months ended
March 31, 1996 averaged $177,000. Based upon continuation of such monthly
operating costs, the Company has sufficient capital to continue for
approximately seven months from March 31, 1996 assuming that it has no revenues
from sales of its products and services and that it does not raise additional
capital through the sale of its securities. While the Company is expecting
orders for its Single Print Scanner, at this time, however, it does not have
any orders, nor can it represent that it will obtain orders.

<PAGE>
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)
The monthly operating costs do not take into account the remaining payments
which the Company has to make on the bankruptcy obligations. The remaining
payments owed on the bankruptcy obligations are the sum of $417,000 to SIS,
with $200,000 due October 19, 1996 and $217,000 due April 19, 1997; the sum of
$87,915 to the general unsecured creditors due October 19, 1996. The Company
has paid on the bankruptcy obligations through April 30, 1996 a total of
$1,766,694, all of it financed from funds raised from equity lenders and
private placement. In addition, in May, 1996, the holder of a $250,000 note
agreed to convert the entire principal amount into 250,000 shares of common
stock.
In order to finance funding for operations of the Company as well as to pay
for the bankruptcy obligations, the Company may seek such funding through sales
of its securities in private placements exempt from registration under the
Securities Act. Also refer to footnote 2 to the Condensed Financial
Statements, that discusses the outstanding warrants available for conversion at
March 31, 1996.
Results of Operations
During the six months and three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, the
Company had no revenues from sales or service. During the same period,
operating costs increased $199,000 and $130,000, or 86% and 120%, respectively,
as compared to the corresponding prior year period. This is directly
attributable to the Company's increased focus on product development and
production of its initial products. The main components of operating expenses
are payroll and related employment costs, outside consulting development costs,
and research and development costs. Said costs aggregated $417,500 for the six
months ended March 31, 1996, as compared with $226,000 for 1995. For the
respective three month periods, the amounts were $238,600 and $108,000.
General and administrative expenses increased 4% or $21,000 in six months
ended March 31, 1996, as compared to 1995. This is the result of the change in
the Company's focus in 1996, as compared to 1995. In 1995, the Company was
still operating as a debtor-in-possession, and, accordingly, was attempting to
finalize its Plan of Reorganization. In 1996, the main activity was to return
to development and attempting to market the Company's products. In 1995,
bankruptcy and other professional fees included in general and administrative
expenses totalled $300,000, as compared to $160,000 in 1996. Offsetting this
$140,000 decrease in expenses were increases aggregating $161,000 for
insurance, stockholder mailing and correspondence, telephone and other office
expenses.
