26th Annual Law Enforcement Information Management (LEIM) Training Conference and Exposition (Denver, Colorado)

May 20-24, 2002

Data Nexus, Inc. demonstrated its latest version of Polaris Public Safety Software at the 26th Annual LEIM Training Conference and Exposition this past week in Denver, Colorado. Polaris is now available for a client server network configuration. This new update will enable more Polaris users to share access to database applications. Connections no longer must be hard-wired but instead can be made by client users as needed. The network clients request information or a service from a server and that server responds to the client by acting on that request and returning results.

In addition to presenting our client/server networking for Polaris, we also demonstrated the very latest in mobile solutions in the public safety field. Our iPAQ Pocket PC gives officers a means to stay mobile while also staying connected. This lightweight device fits in the palm of your hand and can be easily attached to an officer's belt or jacket. Officers can enter citations, maintain contacts, search the NCIC database, check email, and run standard applications like Word and/or Excel.

Our wearable computer was also on display. This compact, full power, wearable device is capable of handling all the functions that a full size computer can do. An officer wearing this computer can be totally hands-free while also having access to Polaris and the Internet. With an available headset, a user can perform data entry verbally allowing for a hands-free operation. Both of these devices when equipped with our Polaris software prove to be an invaluable tool for today's law enforcement officer. Read about our partnerships with HP/Compaq and Xybernaut for more information about the hardware being offered.
