Alanco Technologies has announced that its Alanco/TSI PRISM subsidiary was awarded a contract in excess of $3 million from a U.S. metropolitan jail to provide a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi compatible TSI PRISM RFID inmate tracking system.

The system will be utilized to track and monitor over 2,000 inmates at the jail complex and to provide a state-of-the-art investigative tool and safety system for the jail staff numbering in excess of 450 persons.

System installation is expected to be completed before year end and will represent the largest application of RFID technology to track and monitor people anywhere in the world.

The new tracking system combines Alanco's TSI PRISM RFID system with Wi-Fi compatible RTLS technology from AeroScout, Inc.

Greg M. Oester, Alanco/TSI PRISM President, commented, "The adoption of our RFID inmate tracking technology is accelerating in the corrections market, and particularly, in the metropolitan jail segment where we are actively pursuing major projects involving additional coverage in total of over 25,000 inmates.

"This new award also marks our attainment of a new record high project backlog in excess of $5.4 million."
