In 1968 & 1969, German engineers Helmut Grőttru
& Jűrgen Dethloff filed patents for automated chi
card.
French inventor Roland Moreno patented the
memory card concept in 1974.
Michel Ugon from Honeywell Bull invented the
first microprocessor smart card in 1977.
Until mid 80s most of the work on Smart Cards w
at the research and development level.
First commercial use was French debit cards.
6. Based on the way the smart card interacts with the Card
Reader, smart cards are of three types:
Contact
Smart Cards
Contactless
Hybrid
Smart Cards
Cards

Defined in ISO 7810
standard.
Have contact area of
approx. 1 cm2
This area comprises of
several gold-plated
contact pads.
Pads provides electrical
conductivity.
Power is supplied by
card reader.

Uses RF induction
technology to
communicate and to be
powered.
Defined in ISO 14443
standard.
Communicates at data
rates of 106-848 kbps.
Requires an antenna to
communicate.
