NFC Key Cards for Automobiles: A Major Innovation for the Industry

Contactless technologies are increasingly present in our daily lives, including in the automotive sector. IDEMIA, the world leader in identity technologies, has just taken a significant step forward by obtaining NFC Forum certification for its range of NFC key cards intended for the automotive sector. In this article, we will explore the importance of this certification and the prospects it offers for the automotive industry.

What is NFC Forum Certification?

The NFC Forum is an international body that aims to promote the use and standardization of near field communication (NFC) technology. To obtain NFC Forum certification, devices must comply with NFC Forum specifications, thus ensuring consistent behavior between NFC implementations and a solid foundation for interoperability.

IDEMIA’s NFC Forum certification for key cards (Certification Release 13) is a first in the automotive industry. It attests to IDEMIA’s expertise in the field of NFC key cards and confirms its leadership and positioning in the sector.

The benefits of NFC key cards for the automotive industry

NFC key cards offer numerous benefits for car manufacturers and vehicle users. They allow secure, contactless access and control of vehicles, making them more convenient and hygienic than traditional physical keys.

With NFC Forum certification, IDEMIA’s NFC key cards are compatible with all NFC readers designed for CCC (Car Connectivity Consortium) enabled smartphone keys. This compatibility is crucial as digital keys are rapidly replacing physical keys as the industry standard. NFC key cards thus become the natural complementary companion to digital keys.

Moreover, NFC Forum’s CR13 certification for the first time includes certification for the NFC use case concerning car access, as specified by the Car Connectivity Consortium (CCC).

Prospects for the future

Automotive OEMs show a strategic interest in transitioning from traditional key chains to new solutions, such as smartphones and NFC key cards, to authorize vehicle access. IDEMIA is committed to supporting these market trends with a product portfolio that respects automotive standards, performance, cryptographic expertise, and smart card manufacturing.

Obtaining NFC Forum certification for IDEMIA’s NFC key cards paves the way for wider adoption of this technology in the automotive industry. Manufacturers and consumers will thus be able to benefit from secure, contactless, interoperable vehicle access and control, while enjoying the convenience and reliability offered by this innovation.

In conclusion, the NFC Forum certification obtained by IDEMIA for its NFC key cards is a significant milestone for the automotive industry. This recognition underlines IDEMIA’s expertise in the field of NFC key cards and paves the way for wider adoption of this technology in the sector. Car manufacturers and vehicle users will thus be able to benefit from secure, contactless, interoperable vehicle access and control, while enjoying the convenience and reliability offered by NFC key cards.

Article 51 : IDEMIA lance deux tout nouveaux appareils biométriques de vérification sans contact en mouvement

IDEMIA Launches Two Brand-New Contactless In-Motion Biometric Verification Devices

IDEMIA, the global leader in identity technologies, announces the launch of two new cutting-edge biometric terminals to speed up passenger identity verification procedures. Discover the OneLook Gen2 and the MorphoWave TP – two solutions for faster, more secure, and smoother biometric verification.

OneLook Gen2 – A Multibiometric Identity Verification Solution

The OneLook Gen2 terminal is a multibiometric identity verification solution that offers facial and iris recognition, as well as accurate biometric matches at a distance. Thanks to its second generation, the OneLook Gen2 offers even faster recognition with excellent image quality and more accurate matching. Featuring a new sleek and integrated design, the terminal can be used in a wide variety of applications, including border control and connected boarding for a safer and smoother passenger experience.

MorphoWave TP – A Smooth Fingerprint Verification Solution

The MorphoWave TP is a smooth fingerprint verification solution for crossing land, air, and sea borders. This solution offers contactless and in-motion recognition of ten fingerprints, that is, four fingers and a thumb simultaneously, in any direction. The MorphoWave TP produces high-quality fingerprint images in less than a second, with a simple hand gesture. Compatible with existing databases and classic contact scanners, this solution can be used in a wide variety of situations, including border control.

These two new IDEMIA solutions have been developed to raise biometric standards by offering accurate, contactless, and in-motion verification. Both solutions offer excellent image quality and high matching accuracy for a smoother and more secure passenger experience.

According to the findings of the recent IATA Global passenger survey, 75% of respondents are ready to provide their biometric data for a smoother experience. IDEMIA is aware of the importance of data privacy and is committed to contributing to the protection and security of individuals’ privacy. 

Both solutions were developed according to the Privacy by Design and Privacy by Default principles to guarantee the highest possible level of data protection for identity identification and authentication technologies.

Both solutions have already been successfully deployed as part of numerous border control and passenger journey facilitation devices worldwide. These two new devices are expected to be launched at the Passenger Terminal EXPO 2023 in Amsterdam and will soon be available on the market.

Article 50 : IDEMIA, prestataire technologique du projet pilote DTC-1 de l'Union européenne

IDEMIA, technology provider for the European Union’s DTC-1 pilot project

The European Union has launched the DTC-1 pilot project to test the Digital Travel Credential (DTC) on KLM flights between Canada and the Netherlands. The DTC is a virtual identifier attached to a passport and stored on the holder’s smartphone, representing the electronic travel document exactly. IDEMIA, a global leader in identity technologies, has been selected as the technology provider for this pilot project.

How does the DTC work?

The DTC allows travelers to create their virtual identifier on a dedicated mobile application. To do this, they must take a selfie that will be compared to the photo stored in the chip of their travel document. Once created, travelers can communicate their data and entry questionnaire to the airline for biometric boarding and border control authorities for biometric border crossings. Only a biometric match and a passport tap will be required upon arrival.

Benefits of the DTC for travelers

The DTC offers many advantages for travelers, providing them with more fluidity, speed, and comfort while maintaining their security and privacy. Passport checks at various checkpoints along a journey are considered crucial for security. By applying digital technologies to improve this essential process, IDEMIA helps make it more convenient for travelers while preserving their privacy and security.

IDEMIA, technology partner to ensure safe and seamless journeys

IDEMIA is proud to contribute to this pilot project by providing its technology to ensure safe and seamless journeys while maintaining the privacy and security of travelers. As a global leader in identity technologies, IDEMIA is always present in the identity and travel sector to continuously innovate and ensure safe and seamless journeys in the face of complex security challenges. 

IDEMIA has been selected as the technology provider for the Dutch consortium responsible for the pilot deployment of a European Digital Travel Credential between Canada and the Netherlands. This pilot project is the first of its kind, and IDEMIA is the technology partner to test the DTC on KLM flights for three months. This project is co-funded by the European Commission to test it under real boarding and border crossing conditions before being potentially deployed more widely at the European level. 

In conclusion, IDEMIA is a key technology partner to ensure safe and seamless journeys while maintaining the privacy and security of travelers. The DTC-1 pilot project will facilitate the traveler’s journey through increased fluidity and speed.
