Statement on the donation

**Cognitech, Inc. Announces Donation of software to the Oakland Police Department** Pasadena, CA, — January 30, 2012—Cognitech, Inc. has announced the donation of the forensic video enhancement Tri-Suite software system to the Oakland Police Department in the interest of the Oakland community at large with the purpose of enhancing video footage from the Occupy Oakland protests in order to find the forensic truth in the recorded footage.

The Tri-Suite software system is comprised of three separate software programs, the Video Investigator® software, the VideoActive® software and the AutoMeasure™ software. **Cognitech’s Video Investigator** tool-set is the first and most comprehensive forensic video/image processing software environment in the world. It has over one hundred proprietary designed, user-friendly plug-ins and facilities that enhance, denoise and deblur, including the ability to a super-resolve zoom of forensic video evidence **(e.g. faces, license plates). Cognitech’s VideoActive** tool-set is the first real-time forensic video processing software with the world’s only (Cognitech’s U.S. Patent) fully automatic real-time universal de-multiplexing, including real-time track and cover and real-time universal DVR capture. Cognitech VideoActive allows for patented lossless video capture with encoding that doubles video storage, and the ability to perform a video search **(e.g. cars and people). Cognitech’s AutoMeasure** tool-set is the world’s first automatic forensic photogrammetry software that allows the user to perform accurate bio-metric measurements of the dimensions of a suspect **(e.g. height)**, including crime scene measurements from video surveillance and photographs. This software is important to the work of police departments as it allows the user to know the suspect’s height based on the AutoMeasure calculations which in turn helps the user eliminate and narrow down individuals who might have been considered suspects.

Cognitech, Inc. CEO Dr. Lenny Rudin said, in regards to the donation, “It is our sincere hope that in donating our forensic video Tri-Suite software to the Oakland Police Department, we are helping to assist the entire community through the video enhancement of numerous videos that were recorded during the Occupy Oakland protests. Pictures tell the truth and when enhancing these videos and photos forensically, illegal acts will be seen clearly, no matter who committed them.”
