The ACR128 DualBoost is a dual interface smart card reader compliant to ISO 7816 Part 1-3 Class A, B standard for the Contact smart card and to ISO 14443 Part 1-4 Type A, B standard for the Contactless Card.
By combining contact and contactless interfaces in one reader, ACR128 is appropriate for situations where the environments favor dual interface applications. For example, you may use the ACR128 on the one hand to settle your online payment with contact EMV Level 1 cards, on the other hand to read the balance of your Mifare membership cards.
The ACR128 DualBoost Smart Card Development Kit (ACR128 SDK) provides the user the following: sample applications, sample codes, tools and utilities that can be used to experience the features and capabilities of the ACR128 DualBoost. The demo application is a small-scale database application that shows users how the ACR128 DualBoost can be implemented in a smart card based application. Furthermore, the ACR128 SDK also includes tools, utilities, and sample codes written in several programming languages to help the developer create a variety of real world applications. Manuals and other reference materials are also included to help understand how to operate the device by sending commands to the contactless tags and the device peripherals.
The development kit is now priced at only US$199.
