Benefits of technology

[0018]In order to protect the privacy and also in order to avoid forgery and falsification, the various data in the information carrier's memory are preferably stored in encrypted form. The data are thus protected against access by third parties and encryption by means of present-day encryption techniques may be also executed in such a complicated manner chat falsification or forgery of identity proof is a

Problems solved by technology

However, this type of identity card has the disadvantage of being susceptible to fraud.
In addition, this regular type of identity cards are to a varying degree susceptible to forgery, as well as to loss and theft.
Although this means of identification in itself is highly reliable and fraud-proof, nevertheless a disadvantage lies in the fact that the implementation. requires relatively advanced and specifically suited equipment which will not be generally available

Example

[0022]The drawing as a matter of fact is purely schematic and not drawn to scale. Particularly, for clarity's sake, some dimensions have been represented in a strongly exaggerated manner. Corresponding parts have been indicated in the figure with the same reference number as much as possible.

[0023]The identity card of FIG. 1 comprises a card-shaped, synthetic housing 100 with an input unit 101 for entering an information carrier 107 which, in this case, is also card-shaped just as the housing. The interior of the input unit 101 of the housing has been equipped with electric contacts which are able to cooperate with similarly applied contact surfaces 109 of an integral circuit 108 which has been connected to or installed in the information carrier 107. In addition, the housing comprises an electric feeding which, among others, takes care of the necessary electricity supply to the card by means of some of the above-mentioned contacts. Moreover, the housing 100 contains an installation...
