Combines a fingerprint sensor and smart card reader, using the same Active Capacitive Sensing technology as ADT60 BioSIMKey, the AET60 BioCARDKey ensures the highest quality images to be used with full-size smart cards. It improves security and efficiency of network access, e-commerce, home banking and point-of-sales transactions.

Since fingerprints cannot be lost, duplicated, stolen or forgotten, the product range is widely regarded as providing a more reliable and convenient solution than traditional security devices. With the AET60 BioCARDKey, security is improved further by storing the fingerprint templates inside a smart card instead of the PC. This not only provides a more secure environment but it also enhances portability and eliminates privacy concerns. What is more, it gives users the flexibility of being able to carry their fingerprint template with them, safe in the knowledge that no-one else can use their smart card should it become lost or stolen.

As a proven solution for biometrics, the BioCARDKey is an ideal solution for a broad range of applications including e-business, network access, home banking, secure e-mail, file encryption, and government security.

Using a simple Application Programming Interface, it is extremely easy for designers to integrate the fingerprint authentication features into their applications. The developer can develop the interface very quickly without an in-depth knowledge of biometrics.
