Non-contact smart card used in private and public life

摘要

The production of a novel, non-contact smart card (1) is claimed. The electrically-insulating, flat card is made with at least one recess(es) on one side. Conductive track(s) are applied in a given pattern, on the surface of the recessed side. The track(s) are applied on surfaces both within and outside the recess(es). Microcircuit chip(s) (4) are aligned in the recess(es) and brought into contact with the track(s). Also claimed is a contact-less smart card, essentially as described.
