There are a wide range of mobility solutions with Tactivo available today, and we believe this major implementation will further increase the interest in going mobile with Tactivo”.
The first order in the framework agreement has been placed through Precise Biometrics’ channel partner and includes Tactivo for iPhone 6 to a value of 850 000 SEK.
