American Card Technology, Inc. has developed a patented process that allows it to place multiple applications on a single card. This process also allows the card to be updated. "With this process, information can be uploaded and downloaded without the card being returned to the issuer. This makes the card more user-friendly and cost-effective for the issuer," said Clayton Haggit, the show's senior coordinating producer.

Mr. Findley appears on General Alexander Haig's World Business Review to discuss the opportunities and challenges facing today's corporations as they assimilate smart card technology.

"Our process will allow smart cards to contain multiple forms of security, multiple layers or applications, each application or layer performing multiple tasks such as a driver's license, health care card, welfare card, photograph and security on the same piece of plastic," said Mr. Findley.

 incorporates additional benefits into its smart card offering, which significantly enhances its value proposition. It accomplishes this through what the company refers to as its Dual Card Process. The system first incorporates an Access Card, one by which a system sponsor issues a card to its employees or agents. The second card is given to the user of the system (User/Identity Card). The data on the user card is inactive and cannot be used without the facilitating access card. A user card can have multiple applications that correspond to a variety of sponsors. An example of this is that of a person needing a prescription filled. The user presents their card, the pharmacist uses his/her access card to get the appropriate information that the physician put on it. The only information that either could get would be the data specific to health care.
