Brazil Police Pilot Fingerprint Drug Testing

Fingerprint Drug Testing Featured in Brazil Following Pilot with City Police

Police and the Department of Traffic in the Brasília Federal District of Brazil piloted the Intelligent Fingerprinting Drug Screening System on the streets of the capital. Brazil’s top news outlets—including Jornal Nacional, SBT , Agencia Brasil, Metropoles, Band News, and Correio Braziliense—reported on the pilot extensively.

Rodrigo Silveira of Orbitae, Intelligent Fingerprinting’s Brazilian workplace compliance partner, shared: “Officers used the portable Drug Screening Cartridge and Reader during roadside fingerprint testing in Brasília. The pilot generated national media interest, and we’ve scheduled more trials in Recife, Belém, and São Paulo this September.”

Thanks to its portability and non-invasive design, the fingerprint drug testing system supports rapid drug screening with minimal disruption. Officers collect fingerprint sweat using a tamper-evident Cartridge. Then, the handheld Reader displays on-screen results—within ten minutes—for multiple drugs. These include cannabis (THC), cocaine, opiates, and methamphetamine.

This method requires no restroom access, supervised collection, or handling of biohazards. Employers and public agencies can perform tests discreetly and efficiently. The system strengthens employee health and safety, improves workplace compliance, and supports real-time substance misuse monitoring.
