ABOUT THIS WEBINAR

We live in a dynamic world that is increasingly driven by technological innovation. Within urban populations, there has increase in the demand to use new technologies, especially if they result in making life more enjoyable, more interactive and simpler.

Today, transport agencies can use secure contactless technology to deliver seamless inter-operability within a wide variety of third-party applications, thereby increasing ridership, enhance passenger experiences and build lasting relationships within the community – all whilst moving closer to the ideology of smart urban environments.

Throughout this webinar provided insight into how Monorail tickets were integrated into CES 2017 event tickets, using NXP’s highly secure MIFARE DESFire EV2 contactless IC.  Discussion included technological possibilities and how easy it is to integrate additional services into existing contactless solutions. Attendees of this webinar will, therefore, learn how one single card can be used for multiple services and why all parties therefore profit from a multi-application solution.

Attendees learnt:

  • How secure contactless technology can connect people to an exceptionally broad range of programs and services that provide a convenient, easy starting point for an entire universe of daily activities. The smartphone, therefore, becomes almost a personal kiosk for secure payments, storing funds and connecting to an individual’s preferred payment scheme to enable cashless, on-the-go transactions. What’s more, the addition of secure, interactive, over-the-air services let people customise content and use personal preferences to design their own mobility experiences.
  • MIFARE DESFire EV2 – NXP’s latest smart medium solution provides a secure and flexible way to connect an unprecedented range of activities on a single credential. This means there’s no need to keep track of multiple cards, tickets or keys, etc., since a single card or device can be used for e.g.: transport; accessing a hotel room; as a museum ticket; as sport event ticket; or to attend a concert.
