The increasing card fraud and fear of identity theft has given CardLab ApS an increasing demand for biometric card solutions from banks and public authorities and CardLab is now pleased to announce that we will be using Fingerprints™ latest T-Shape™ module in our biometric card reference design.
CardLab was in February 2017 granted support from the EU Commission under the Horizon 2020 program, with the scope to embed a fingerprint sensor solution in all card types to enhance security for E-banking, E-commerce, E-government, payment, access and ID card solutions.
The card solutions CardLab has prepared under this program are compliant with the new data protection regulations and do fully protect the personal identity as biometric data are stored in the card only and not in databases. Such solution does require use of reliable high security sensors and Cardlab has therefore decided to continue the use of technology and sensors from Fingerprints™ for this project, as they over the years have proven to be second to none in consistency, power consumption and reliability.

“We are pleased to work with Fingerprints™ as they have been very perceptive to CardLab input in their work towards developing a sensor that can be easily embedded in volume production. It has been a very fruitful journey in where we have found Fingerprint very dedicated to their work and at the same time very receptive to CardLab’s requirements and the experiences acquired over more than a decade working with ultrathin electronics inside ID-1 standard cards. Fingerprints™ new unique T-Shape™ sensor and CardLab experience and knowhow in designing Powered Cards is a perfect combination and will benefit not just CardLab but the Card sector in general now being able to integrate another layer of security in volume production” said Frank Sandelöv, CEO Cardlab Aps.

CardLab has since 2006 used Fingerprints™ sensors for card solutions and the knowhow derived from this work creating a CardLab FPC1080A module design has contributed in making a sustainable fingerprint sensor module design, possible to embed using standard card industry embedding equipment.

Cardlab are therefore pleased to see that the T-Shape™ sensor is adapted to this process. These products make it possible for any card manufacturer to embed the module that is designed to withstand the rough test criteria valid for payment cards. It can as a standard solution be connected to the thin flexible electronic inlay in the card and thereby make any card solution a fully biometrically secured card.

“That CardLab has chosen to use our T-Shape™ module in their reference design is an evidence that the T-Shape™ sensor fits the market requirements and we are pleased to work together. This is a proof of our efforts meeting not only the demands of production processes but also demands in terms of security and ease of use.” Said Thomas Rex SVP Business Line Smart Cards at Fingerprints.

CardLab has for years designed and manufactured ultrathin, flexible electronic inlay as an integrated part of electronic payment cards, access cards and ID cards. Any customer wanting to use the Fingerprints™ sensor solution in ISO 7810 standard cards may acquire support from CardLab on card & inlay design, inlay manufacturing, card lamination and support on embedding processes of the fingerprint sensor or any other embedded elements.
