Biometric Payment Smart Card Solution to Be Developed by Infineon, Fingerprint Cards AB

Infineon Technologies AG and Fingerprint Cards AB announced the signing of a joint development and commercialization agreement of a plug-and-play turnkey solution for a biometric payment smart card.

The goal of the cooperation is to make biometric smart card production as simple and easy as producing a standard dual interface payment card.

This comprehensive SECORA Pay Bio turnkey solution will include both Fingerprints’ FPC1323 sensor with its biometric software algorithm and Infineon’s upcoming SLC39B Secure Element.

This solution will come with a pre-certified Java Card operating system including Mastercard and Visa bio-applets. With the development of the innovative Infineon Biometric Coil on Module (BCoM) package based on inductive coupling technology, the overall biometric smart card manufacturing process 'will be significantly simplified and the bill of material considerably reduced'.
