                         NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997



1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

           The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and the applicable
rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating
results for the nine month period ended June 30, 1997 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September
30, 1997. For further information, refer to the financial statements and
footnotes for the years ended September 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994.

           BUSINESS OPERATIONS

               The Company has been in the development stage and, accordingly,
has directed its efforts and resources to product and prototype development and
production planning of its electronic fingerprint identification systems. The
Company operated as a debtor in possession pursuant to Chapter 11 of the Federal
Bankruptcy Code until September, 1994, at which date a Trustee was appointed. On
March 31, 1995, a Plan of Reorganization was confirmed and, accordingly, the
Company exited from protection of the Bankruptcy Court and the Company's
Management was transferred to a Board of Directors.


2.  STOCK WARRANTS

           In addition to the common shares issued pursuant to the terms of the
reorganization plan, the Company issued three classes of common stock
warrants, Series A, B and C. The number of warrants issued for the preceding 
nine months is detailed in the chart below.

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

     Although the Company has started to receive small but firm orders for its
products, and has indications that it will be receiving significant orders
within the next several months, the Company, after twenty years of operation
and a bankruptcy reorganization, 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. As of date hereof, the Company has nearly exhausted its working
capital, and, as indicated below, if additional capital is not raised by the
end of August, 1997, the Company may not be able to continue its day-to-day
operations.

     The following capital investments and loans aggregating $1,690,971, less
$40,800 in commissions, and less $300,000 in repayment of bankruptcy mandated
loan obligations, were made to the Company during the nine months ended June
30, 1997 which has enabled the Company to sustain itself:

     1.  In the nine months ended June 30, 1997, an aggregate of $175,486
shares of the Company's common stock were issued pursuant to the exercise of
like number of warrants having exercise prices of $2.00 per share for an
aggregate price to the Company of $349,471.

     2.  In the months of October, 1996 and through December, 1996, pursuant to
a subscription agreement made in August, 1995, the Company sold 500,000 shares
of its common stock under Regulation S at a price of $1.00 per share for an
aggregate price of $500,000.

     3.  In the months of January and February, 1997, the Company sold a total
of 361,255 shares of its common stock under Regulation S for an aggregate gross
price of $510,000; of the total of 361,255 shares of common stock, 313,720
shares were sold at a price of $1.434 per share, and the balance of 47,555
shares were sold at a price of $1.2617 per share; a commission of 8%, amounting
to $40,800 was paid by the Company on these sales.

ITEM 2.



                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (continued)

     4.  In June, 1997, the Company sold 185,482 shares in an offering to 
"accredited investors" pursuant to Regulation D at varying prices which
averaged to $1.50 per share with Company receiving $231,500.

     5.  The Sum of $100,000 was loaned to the Company by one of the Company's
largest investors in the last days of May, 1997, and is evidenced by a
convertible subordinated note bearing interest at 10% per annum dated June 1,
1997 and payable May 31, 1998; at the option of the holder of the June 1, 1997
and payable May 31, 1998; at the option of the holder of the note, each $.70 of 
principal owed on the note is convertible into one share of the Company's 
common stock. In July, 1997, the same lender loaned the Company
an additional $100,000 evidenced by a convertible subordinated note dated July
1, 1997 having the same terms as the first note and due June 30, 1998.

     The Company had as of June 30, 1997 cash in the sum of $105,000 and
working capital deficiency of $127,000. The monthly costs of the Company for
the nine months ended June 30, 1997 averaged $190,000. Based upon continuation
of such monthly operating costs, the Company has sufficient working capital to
continue until the end of August, 1997, assuming the Company has no revenues
from sales of its products and services and that it does not raise additional
capital through the sale of its securities and through loans, it may have to
cease operations until it can raise further capital.

     The monthly operating costs do not take into account the remaining payment
which the Company has to make on the bankruptcy obligation. The remaining
payment owed on the bankruptcy obligation to SIS is $117,000. The Company has
paid on the bankruptcy obligations through June 30, 1997 a total of $2,204,000,
all of it financed from funds raised from the equity lenders and the private
placement, payment of which is now in default.

ITEM 2.



                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS




     At date hereof (August 15, 1997), the Company has current indebtedness of
approximately $160,000, including approximately $13,000 payable to the landlord
of the Company's place of business for two months rent, who is threatening
eviction.

     In order to finance funding for operations of the Company as well as to
pay for the bankruptcy obligations, the Company has had to seek and shall seek
such funding through sales of its securities in private placements exempt from
registration under the Securities Act. No assurance or representation is made
by the Company it will be able to secure such funding. 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     During the nine months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, the Company had
revenues from sales of $12,000 and $ -0-, respectively. During the same period,
operating costs increased $40,000 or 5%, as compared to the corresponding prior
year period. This is primarily attributable to an increase in consulting 
expenses. The main components of operating expenses are payroll and related 
employment costs, outside consulting development costs, and research and 
development costs. Said costs aggregated $811,000 for the 1997 period, as 
compared with $760,000 for 1996.

     General and administrative expenses increased $55,000 for the nine months
ended June 30, 1997, as compared to an increase of $20,000 in 1996. The 1997
period included higher professional and accounting fees, higher payroll and
related taxes, higher depreciation expense resulting from the acquisition of
fixed assets needed for anticipated sales, and higher telephone and traveling
expenses incurred in the solicitation of business. The other components of
general and administrative expenses remained relatively constant, as compared
with the prior year.

     Interest expense decreased from $8,900 in 1996 to $3,200, or 60%, in 1997.
This is the result of the debt repayments made during the year as a result of
the bankruptcy plan.
