Bull, fyi

Cubic is the only company that has designed smart card systems that are independent of a particular smart card technology. The key element is the Cubic Tri-Reader® which is compatible with all ISO standard smart cards used by transit customers.

Our open systems architecture approach allows us to provide systems that can use various smart cards as well as Cubic's GO CARD® System. (interoperability?)

In addition to providing GO CARD-based systems for Washington, D.C. and Chicago mass transit systems, CTS has introduced smart card systems and/or smart card-ready equipment in London; New York; Freiburg, Germany; Shanghai and Guangzhou, China; Kuala Lumpur; and Hong Kong.

Our new generation contactless product, called Gen 3.0, will feature enhanced memory logic technology. Now under development, Gen 3.0 will offer reduced die size and high-speed transaction processing, allowing transit authorities to offer unprecedented contactless smart card memory and security for single or multi-application use.

MICRO TRI-READER® - The newest entry in Cubic's family of multi-card readers is the Micro Tri-Reader®. It offers the same functionality as its namesake the Tri-Reader®, the first device of its kind to read and process multiple contactless card types (ISO 14443 Types A and B, and Cubic's GO CARD® System). The Micro Tri-Reader enables integration of new smart card technology into third party equipment such as hand held devices, point-of-sale (POS) terminals, parking equipment, and various access control equipment that are compact in size. Additional card security is added to third-party applications through Security Access Module (SAM) technology. The SAMs will enable the Micro Tri-Reader to process other card applications including e-cash, e-purse, banking, and more.
