UNIVERSITY PARK, Illinois, June 20 /PRNewswire/ --

- Advanced ANPR/ALPR technology continues to enable public safety and 
security around the world

Federal Signal Corporation's Safety and Security Systems Group, a leader
in advancing security and well-being, today announced that the Warsaw Police
have adopted Federal Signal's PIPS automated number/license plate recognition
(ANPR/ALPR) technology to better enable timely and efficient traffic
enforcement along strategic roadways into Warsaw, Poland. Through this
collaborative effort between PHU Telsat, local network providers and PIPS
Technology, more than 20 PIPS Spike ANPR/ALPR camera systems have been
deployed to monitor roadways for vehicles of interest in Warsaw.

As vehicles pass by the VCOP system, information on the vehicle's number
plate is sent to a central database at Warsaw Police Headquarters. The
vehicle information is compared against a database of wanted vehicles and, in
the event of a match, a police officer is notified in real-time to take
appropriate action.

UNIVERSITY PARK, Illinois, June 20 /PRNewswire/ --

In operation in Warsaw for more than seven months, the effectiveness of
the Spike system has resulted in plans to expand the system to include
additional cameras. Speaking to the system's versatility and powerful ability
to serve as a force multiplier, Grzegorz Kawka of PHU Telsat states, "The
system is part of a 'joined up' approach where license plate information can
be sent to the police officers through the Tetra or GSM telecommunication
network to phone or PDA, empowering them to respond immediately." The robust
and reliable nature of the Spike system has received numerous awards for
innovation and secured its place in some of the largest ANPR/ALPR projects in
the world within mission critical public safety, highway, university, airport
and seaport projects.

"For more than 100 years, Federal Signal has been a public safety system
innovator in communities around the world, and our commitment to provide
advanced technology solutions to help today's first responders take control
of mission-critical assets and events remains robust," said Michael K. Wons,
vice president and general manager of Federal Signal's Public Safety Systems
Division. "ANPR and digital video, computer-aided dispatch and records
management, and interoperable communications are just a few of the leading
edge technologies that help us achieve that vision. We are pleased to partner
with PHU Telsat to help the Warsaw Police deploy our PIPS intelligent
transportation solution to help protect people, property and the environment
in Warsaw."

The Federal Signal PIPS intelligent transportation ALPR system is part of
Federal Signal's global Public Safety Systems industry platform.
