Smart Card Personalisation
A smart card personalisation system
is a technology that allows for the
creation and issuance of smart cards
with personalised information.
These cards are used to store and
transmit data securely and are
commonly used in various industries,
including banking, healthcare,
transportation, and government.
The process of creating a smart card
involves personalising the card with
unique information such as the
individual's name, address, photo,
and identification number. The
personalisation system uses
software and hardware components
to encode the data onto the card's
microchip, which can then be read by
compatible card readers.
The system typically includes a card printer, an encoder, a laminator, and related software. The user enters the personal information into the software, which then transfers the data to the card printer. The printer then prints the card and encodes the chip with the required information. Finally, the laminator applies a protective layer to the card to prevent wear and tear. Smart card personalisation systems can also include security features such as holograms, barcodes, and watermarks to prevent counterfeiting and fraud. These systems are critical in maintaining security and privacy in various industries that rely on smart card technology.
