The Dynamic Magnetic Stripe

The most commonly used technology to transmit information from a plastic card (Credit card, ID card, etc) to an infrastructure (Security access network, bank verification network, ATM, etc) is a programmed magnetic stripe.
It is an old, reliable and very cheap system. It is also the only truly global system. Unfortunately it is very easy to copy the data from the magnetic stripe, and create a false card.

The dynamic magnetic stripe Is a full length dynamic magnetic stripe currently with track 1 & 2 providing emulation of a real magnetic stripe.
 The advantages of the Cardlab Dynamic Magstripe (CDM) are:

• True emulation of a full magnetic stripe compatible with existing infrastructure.
• Data on the stripe can be dynamic
• Low power consumption
• Designed for hot and cold lamination
• Easy to integrate into other designs
• Programmable (read into the card) via the CDM on existing perso equipment
